Joan  very nicely built the doors and the hidden hinges that you used   but most of all is your choice   

hickory    my wife has a hickory kitchen that I built for her, 

it is a good and very durable wood, will last for years

Joan,  such a beautiful piece of furniture.  Your choice of wood is excellent as well as the overall design.  What a gift you have to be able to get some instruction from your Dad.   Thanks for sharing your work and I look forward to seeing more from you!

Your work is really beautiful!  As you know, I'm a beginner and the wood rack was one of the first things that I made. Found the plan in shopnotes magazine and it looked like a good way to organize all the wood scraps that my dad was going to give me. It has worked out well. I really like the sheet goods section that pivots in and out.  I didn't like constantly having to move the wood when I needed to get to something that I just stacked it in front of! LOL  with some hard work and guidance, I hope to be able to build beautiful projects like you have! :)

Thanks for the kind comments!  Lorrie - I started woodworking a couple of years ago, "apprenticing" with my Dad who is a hobbyist (post-retirement) master craftsman.  The time learning with him is priceless.  The curved apron rails seems to be becoming a signature look for the pieces I've made.  I need to make the wood storage unit you made - I could really use that in my shop!

Hi Joan - what a beautiful cabinet!  I could use this in my house!  I really love the curved bottom and sides.  How long have you been doing woodworking?  All of your projects are wonderful!  Keep up the good work!

Jay - thank you for the feedback!  I respect and appreciate your comments!  This was a fun piece from start to (almost) finish, from drawing the plans to the selecting the wood to the first cut.  It's been a learning experience (hickory is beautiful but brittle) and I've learned a lot along the way.  All good!  Thanks, David!
