I loved John's mahogany credenza and saved that magazine article for guidance one day.  My wife asked for a walnut credenza/server for our dining room and I used John's design for guidance.  Instead of using my Lamello biscuit joiner I used my Festool Domino Joiner for all of the mortise and tenon joints. The hinges, door pulls and ball catches were from Brusso.  The interior was finished with a thin coat of shellac, the exterior was finished with 4 coats of Minwax Wipe On Poly Satin finish followed by paste wax.


Design or Plan used: John McAlevey, Finewoodworking Issue 71
