The basement in my housemates shop is finally cleared a bit, I have some room to work now. I don't have all my tools in the new space, but I have enough for this small project. This post is mostly to keep me writing and working, as I've written very little in the last few months.
This first picture I'm almost embarrassed about, it's not fine furniture, nor really complicated. Just little 4mm X 14mm X 60mm strips, six of them, two each in mahoganies of different vintages. They are samples for an instrument maker to test harmonics/vibration durability of the different ages of mahogany. They were fun, and allowed me to practice working to tight tolerances, most of the measurements are within .02mm, for those of you like me who only work in inches, or to scribed components that equates to about .0008" or a little less than half the thickness of a sheet of common computer paper).
Nextly, here is a shot of the lumber cut and resting for the key cabinet (Blk. Walnut) and a pair of Krenovian shop bents (sawhorses, Ash). The little junk on top of the left hand pile is an assortment of sticker stock I cut out of the scrap ash from the bents. More to come, today I resawed some pine to mock up the door and muntins when the time comes.
