This was my original plan. Just something I came up in my head.
This is the case and frame assembled

Building a new dresser to replace an armoire that was broken during our last move. The design comes out of my head but I am trying to make it roughly match the other furniture in the bedroom. My first attempts at Hand cut Dovetails!
