Split in Pieces






I bought a big piece of wood and cut it in piece. After cut it I marked down a mark in the back side of each piece. This way I will always know wish side I'm working on.
As my major projects, I used wooden pins to get it together.
Feet








To create the feet I used a beam, and cut it in four pieces on 10 cm. Them I rounded the edges and the bottom.
To assemble it I drill two holes in each foot and on the bottom piece (of cabinet)
Doors






This cabinet have two sliding doors. So I made the rails (bottom and top (wish is a shelf)) with the router.
Them, cut the top and bottom of the door, and left 1cm to fit on the rails.
Door Texture


I added some texture. Marked down the lines and used a router with a triangle tip.
Assemble and Finish








To finish it, sand it, sand it, sand it.
Assemble all piece together. For the cabinet back I used a 5mm panel with very small nails.
Then I applied the finish, I choose cherry varnish and I loved the result.
Finihed



After it dry, placed it on it's placed and...enjoyed it.
