Jason,

Beautiful wood, super craftmanship and excellent photography. Seeing this, I think that a Shaker piece is next on my list!

You call that a cabinet? Not me. I'd call that a masterpiece! That's one of the most beautiful pieces of furniture I've ever seen. Your selection of figured wood and finish is exquisite. I really want to touch it. I can only dream of being able to execute something as fine as that. Well done! dave

Patience, a good eye, & talent is what separates a woodbutcher from the true craftsman. You my friend are an excellent craftsman. I have a feeling that you can preach one heck of a sermon also.

Sorry for the loss of your grandfather, God Bless.

Great work Jason. I also like the other Shaker pieces hanging next to the cabinet. Also very good photography. I can actually see the details of your work.

Any chance you could post another pic of the wall cupboard unit? Like maybe a straight on shot?

Thanks for all your help. I look forward to seeing "your" version in the future.

Jason,

BEAUTIFUL work! I love your attention to detail. I've not always truly appreciated the Shaker style thinking that it looked too simple. But, when a piece is crafted as beautifully as yours, it has an elegance about it that is very pleasing to the eye. I love the Tall Cabinet. You should be proud of your work!

Glad to hear that your true fulfillment comes from your ministry (just as it should be). I'm sure you get some satisfaction from woodworking, but seeing the great work you do in light of your statement "...nothing is more satisfying than the ministry..." makes me want to hear one of your sermons!

Again, great job!

Mike

Very nice work indeed, and wonderful attention to detail.
I esp. like the use of the leather as door bumpers. I have used leather in that application also, and it gives a nice soft feel. I was wondering how you secured the panels int the frames, if at all. Space balls? A micro pin in the center, top and bottom, on the back?
Are the knobs ebony, or walnut?
Ddi you make your own dowels for the pins? Perhaps by use of a doweling plate?
You have much to be proud of with that addition to your home.

Not sure what to add that hasn't already been said, Jason, except:

You shoulda used square knobs like Tyler 'n I told ya to!!!!

(seriously nice job...sure to be an heirloom for generations to come)

[Kirk (KC) Constable]

I think every one of us would be proud to say we built something of that quality. A beautiful piece with wonderful details. You oughta send pics of this to FWW.

Alan, thanks for the kind words. The dowels are just 1/4 rods I got from Rockler. I've looked at the L.N. doweling plate, but I don't really know how it works. On top of this, most of the doweling I do only requires 1/4 which is pretty easy to get.

The knobs are walnut. And the panels are floating all on their lonesome.

I know, I know... I feel like a heal. I ask for all that advice, you and Tyler are so kind to give me advice, and then what do I do with it? Nothing!

I tell you what, I'm going to give you 10 free passes to ignore whatever I say in the next year On top of this, I promise to always view you and Tyler as squares.

Thanks again for all your help.

Just remember, your boss was a carpenter !!!!

Really nice stuff, Pastor !
