Built this walnut bookcase for my sister (3rd furniture piece) On this one I measured how many hours it took, so I could test the viability as a future career. It was about 60 hours. Yeesh. Anyway, I am pretty happy overall with how it turned out. I got this PNG Walnut for a steal from someone who was getting rid of a garage full of wood before they moved city. Also got enough to make a future kitchen countertop out of. I love this timber, I think Walnut is my favourite, even though it's non native here in Aus. I wanted it to be more sturdy than my last piece, and all the pieces I got were 95x95mm, so I cut them down to 25x90mm boards and made the bookcase 3 of these thick. There were a couple of challenges here, the first being the feet, which are essentially the shape you see in vaulted ceilings in churches. I cut out a quarter circle curve on the X and Y axis using the band saw, and then used a belt sander to make it smooth. That part was easier than I thought, but the glue up was extremely difficult.…
