Default Corner Cab - work in progress

Beautiful color, great design and scale.. You've certainly taught the
benefits of creating in CAD first. Something to aspire to.. and that
difficult face frame with those tight mitered joints and matching
wood/grain.. wow.. I had to go to Swingman's woodworking school website to
see how you glued that up.. I learn something looking at the process and
pictures of each piece you build.. Thanks for sharing..

Nice!

The color does look great on that wood.


Thanks ... kind of hard to tell with the digital flash, but what I really
like about that particular brand of stain is there is a bit of sapwood on
both the door stiles, and the cove molding (you can see it clearly in the
first picture on this projects page in the two rough 4/4 boards that made
up
100% of the hardwood used in this corner cabinet), and a single
application
of the stain evens it out to the point that the sapwood disappears into
the
mix.

I've had trouble with white oak before, with both stains and fuming, in
that
regard. The Rockler/McFadden stain took care of that problem on the last
two
projects I've used it on.
