This is a 10 drawer chest of drawers made using many ideas from Michael Pekovich and Christian Becksvoort works and articles.  It is made of cherry with poplar as the secondary wood.  It has more than two hundred handcut dovetails including those joining the top and bottom to the sides.  It is finished with precat lacquer followed by  wet sanding with wet and dry sandpaper and mineral spirtis then a final rubout with 0000 steel wool.
