Didn’t get to post here for a while because of sickness, but we’re making progress with the table project. I have started with the table top’ centre. It’s a combination of ash and padouk. #WoodWorking #menuiserie #CNFPC

Not much progress was made on Thursday but I managed to glue up the drawer perfectly square and continued with the inside of the corpus. Second photo of the example. I be was planning on passing by the Amsterdamse Fijnhout yesterday but with the traffic being exceptionally busy in the Netherlands I didn’t make it on time. The Sipo and Padouk wood I ordered will be collected another day in the future. #woodworking #CNFPC #menuisserie

Took some work home with me for my #Woodworking course at the #CNFPC. It was a bit of a dog of the female persuasion but I managed to square up the dry-fit of the table drawer, after sanding the insides up to 240-grain. The wood is baby-bottom smooth.

Update on my #woodworking course. The corpus of the table has been finished and I glued it up. I have prepared all parts for the drawer and took them home so I can work on that during the Easter hols. Some have started on their tabletop already. I’ve ordered Padouk and Amaranth wood at the Amsterdamsche Fijnhout for a 11x11 chessboard #menuiserie #training #CNFPC

Last night the new semester of the woodworking course at the CNFPC started. We’re starting with this: the corpus of a chess table, including a drawer. We’ll learn a lot of different new techniques so I am very enthusiastic about it.
