Woodworking with Mark Singer

   

Sapele Bed

  1 of 2

Today my client picked up the bed and many other pieces I have completed.  These are the first pics I have posted of the bed and attached side tables.  This furniture is going into a home I designed expected to be completed in June.

 

Moving the tables forward separates the elements which helps create a relationship of back to frame to table.  It also places phone, clock ,lamp and other things in ergonomically handy range... as you get older and go to the bathroom 5 or 10 times in the night it is nice to have the tables to lean on... or trip over.

 

The drawer fronts are thick because I needed to make the overlay to cover the carcass.  Houndstooth are easier than you think...  The care is in keeping the fragile parts from breaking.  I have been doing this a while and that is the practice I often mention... practice...
