My latest project. A G&G inspired dartboard cabinet from cherry. A fun build.




Wow, the guy has talent!



Excellent design. Very true to G&G with a little modern flare. I love the inclusion of the sap\bark\mineral lines and I think I also see a crack near the bottom of one panel,which I think is fantastic. Really. Very nicely done.



A few Q's

1. Your design?


Yes. I have the SketchUp available for download if you'd like it.



2. Does it have a finish applied? If so what is it with details of how it was applied.



I used a mix of 1:1:1 Tung oil, varnish, and mineral spirits. Applied a generous coat and wiped off the excess X2. Hit the panels lightly w/ steel wool 0000 after a few days.

No cracks in the panels. I did get very lucky when resawing for the panels with the mineral lines/pitch lines. The lines ran most of the board and both panels were resawn/bookmatched from the same board and match end to end.

Thank you!
