Furniture and Cabinetmaking – Issue 323

In issue 323 of Furniture & Cabinetmaking you’ll find plenty to inspire and inform your furniture making.

In our Projects section, Israel Martin builds a long sideboard with sliding doors; Wayne Bennett is commissioned to make a chest to store aromatherapy bottles; Mitch Peacock uses East Indian rosewood to make a writing slope; Louise Biggs restores an antique oak table; Jim Bennett begins the construction of a pair of large, freestanding bookcases for a loyal customer; and Germán Peraire creates a jewellery box with secret mitre dovetails.

In Techniques, Giacomo Malaspina looks at ways to reinforce joints as he makes a box; Derek Jones looks at traditional French polish and how to apply it; and Daniel Rickey introduces the trestle joint.

In Features, we celebrate the recipients of the annual Wood Awards; and we learn about SawStop, the US tablesaw brand using innovative technology to save fingers across Europe.

We also have profiles of talented designer-makers Daniel Rickey; Sean Woolsey; and Jeremy Lee.
