The
accents on the Henderson Sideboard are all made from a walnut tree
downed in the 80's in Thetford, VT. Physical joinery is on display here
with a sliding dovetail joining the drawer dividers to the uprights. |
 |
Inside
each door is a set of adjustable solid maple shelves. The primary wood
is Hard Maple and the secondary (drawer parts, case back, and internal
structure) is made of Tulip Poplar. |
 |
A
bit of grain matching and board layout went into this piece. The drawer
fronts were all taken from one very clean and straight board. The
panels on the doors were resawn and bookmatched across the whole piece
to create visual balance. |
 |
The
sideboard is held up by a set of four french feet. To achieve this it
requires cutting the leg stock from extra thick wood and shaping them
down to create the sweeping effect, which lightens the look and adds
visual strength. |
The
Henderson Sideboard is made from Sugar Maple, Tulip Poplar and brass
hardware. It is finished with first a wash of shellac, followed
by boiled linseed oil and finally a half dozen coats of Waterlox
varnish. |
