I made this cabinet to store wine glasses in.  It is my version of a recent FWW project but modified to add a drawer and different shelves.  The legs and stand are cherry with bubinga case and shelves.  The cabinet doors are a nice piece of claro walnut that I had been saving.  I made the drawer from walnut and holly because I wanted a nice contrast when the drawer was opened.

I find bubinga initially moves a lot when milling, so can be prone to warpage, but other than that most of these woods are good choices - the figured walnut and cherry worked really well with hand tools and holly isn't bad either
