Well I have been busy and haven't posted anything on here in a while so here is my latest cabinet.
The idea was to capture some aspects from mid century furniture, Jory Brighams Furniture, and Maloof's furniture and combine the three. The base is 6/4 walnut and I used the domino xl to join it together. The cabinet also has domino joinery along with plugged screws I used instead of clamps. This actually worked pretty slick turns out. I used a miller dowel bit for a hole then used regular pocket hole screws when i glued up the cabinet. afterwards i went back and turned the miller dowels upside down and cut off the remaining part of the dowels to cover up the screws. The drawers have Blumotion glides and the doors have pin hinges in them (thanks everyone for suggesting them in a previous post). Finally the back and drawer bottoms are painted to add to the mid century feel and I finished the wood with 4 coats of maloof oil.
