What a feeling. I have been working on the last 4 drawers for a week or so. One of them was a monster at almost 12" deep. Drawer number 13 was pretty significant - it was the first one where all the dovetails fit right off the saw. Drawer No.14 had one corner that needed a bit of paring, but 15 and 16 (the monster drawer) were also off the saw. I took a pile of photos of drawer No.16 being built - it will be the subject of “Some thoughts on dovetails - part II”. The “Red-Robbie” pulls are just temporary until the African Blackwood pulls are done.<br /><br />Here are a few pics of the three banks of drawers in the kitchen.<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.sauerandsteiner.com/news/uploaded_images/fridgedrawers-700954.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://www.sauerandsteiner.com/news/uploaded_images/fridgedrawers-700941.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.sauerandsteiner.com/news/uploaded_images/islanddrawers-701020.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://www.sauerandsteiner.com/news/uploaded_images/islanddrawers-701012.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /> I think I can hear Jill blissfully filing Tupperware.
