Time for another right of passage build and this one’s a big one, a wall mounted hand tool cabinet. I’ve given the design and tool selection a lot of thought but I’ll save that commentary for another post. First things first, the shop needed a good tidy and my wood rack need some kondofication.
The first cut is alway a big one. The makita had just enough depth of cut to get through this.
Edge ripped. Caught the poor positioning after taking this photo and moved the slab to avoid cutting into my workbench.
This slab is going to be too wide for my jointer, time to break out the No.7 and get to work. Once semi-flattened the planer should be able to do the rest.
I’m really enjoying the color gradient of this walnut. I think I’ll use this particular slab for the frames and panels.
