I finally finished the dresser I’ve been working on (it’s #2 of 2, built to fit in our closet). No drawer slides, just paste wax, and made pretty much entirely from plywood and glue.

The project was pretty simple, but I went for (fairly) tight tolerances (a few mm clearance), so I was grateful for having made a crosscut sled on this one.

    Thanks! I definitely still feel like a novice, too. It’s definitely more about the process and making stuff that’s “mine” than getting it perfect. I actually have a few (minor) screwups on this one that I’ll always notice, but whatever. It beats Ikea!

    Not to actually throw shade at Ikea though… some of their stuff is a great deal haha.
