I created this kitchen island from walnut purchased at an auction 7 years ago. The walnut was cut from the same tree.  The counter is 3 foot by 4 foot, The panels are one wide piece, (not glues parts), sides are 20 " and back ones are 21". The top and bottom both have Accuride 22" easy close full extend slides attached to hard maple drawers with Amerock brushed oil bronze door and drawer pulls.  When coated the walnut came alive with beautiful multiple colors from pink to browns. This is by far the best piece I have made.

Next is to redo the whole kitchen,,, You know, paint the trim then you have to paint the whole house..lol
