TV Corner Cabinet by btyreman
Here’s a bespoke corner TV Cabinet I designed myself, based on the knowledge that paul teaches, it has dovetails on the bottom apron, stopped housing dado’s and a bareface stub tenon, the base is made from painted pine and the top from american white oak which was scraped with a no80 cabinet scraper finished with pure tung oil, I chose the top wood carefully to get a cathedral grain look and include the lighter sapwood, there are a few screws for extra support to help strengthen it even further, my client loved it, and I loved making it.

Workbench by Kyle P.
I followed the video/blog series to make my workbench out of the infamous “white wood,” which I bought at two different times and got two different woods (i think spruce and doug fir). I got a good workout planing down the rounded edges throughout the project. My well board ended up short in width, but that ended up being a perfect slot for my chisels/saws/etc. I took the picture after working on a couple projects, so it’s a little dinged up. Great learning experience!
