Maple furniture at Mike's

Here are some pictures of things we made. Merriann, Mike and I made them. Merriann and I made the bed for our son's wedding. We later all helped make the TV cabinet and then later the chest of drawers. I made the same bed out of oak for my daughter when she was married. The plans for both the bed and the chest of drawers came from the woodworker's journal.








They were made out of rough maple. It was not easy getting it plained down without big chips. I had thought I would love to work with maple. Now, I am not so sure. I recently have tried cherry, and I am really liking how it mills.
