This is a chest I made of Walnut about 1965. In use daily in our home since then. Constructed in Okla. City with a lot inferior tools, what I had then. Did not have a shop, used the garage. The chest survived moves to Tampa Fl. and then to here in Georgia.
54" wide by 18" deep and 33" tall. The drawers are 4 1/2" tall and 7" tall. The drawers have no hardware slides, just wood to wood with a little wax to make them slide easy. The two doors are 14" by 20". The drawer front to sides joint is similar to something I saw in my Grandfathers Upholstery Shop. Not sure why I did it that way, but it has held up great. Made the legs, remember cutting grooves and then carving away waste.
The wood is Oklahoma Walnut with secondary frame work wood Poplar. Do not remember the finish used. Oil based. It has endured well whatever it is.
The hinges and knobs were from Woodcraft. Only place I knew of back then. A couple of the tools I purchased to build this I still have and occasionally use. Dowel drill jig, in the original box, marked $7.95. Same one still made and sold priced at $49. Small hand saw old price on box is $4.96 others similar today are $75 and up.
Never posted anywhere else. Kind of my answer to posting items made in the past.
