A Special request from the Wife for a wall mounted jewelry storage cabinet.  The model for the project can be found HERE.

 

 

The prototype for the project. It measures 47" high X 4 1?2" deep X 14 1/2" wide.

Since the front door was 14 1/2" I had to glue two 8" panels together. Hopefully there will be no warping of the panel in the cold shop while I'm manipulating it. Here I am gluing the 2 front door panels.

Cutting rabbets for the back anchor panel. There are 2 "backer boards" for the project; the first is set into a rabbet in the main panel and the felt panel is inserted after the finishing is complete.

The basic box completed. It was stained with Golden Oak (2 coats), varnished 1 time with Satin Poly and treated with Grain Fill.

The door stained and 1st coat of varnish.

The door warped badly while the project was progressing. I had no choice but to discard it and make a panel door.

While at Yukon Lumber, I noticed roll of African Mahogany veneer that was very cheap, due to a small crack running down the center for about 12". The piece is 48" long so I decided a mahogany panel door would be the perfect solution.

I could not cut the rails with enough precision by hand to make them look right. I had to purchase a coping sled to make it work. This is one of the best....made by Pinnicle.

The rails and stiles cut.

The earing hanger for the inside of the door (replaces the ring holder in the prototype. The rungs will be covered in felt.

Assembly of the door. I am very pleased with the color scheme....the mahogany nicely offsets the red oak.

The door treatments completed. The raised hangers are for bracelets and such and the large hooks are for her watches.

The completed cabinet minus the door hardware.

Packed with LOOT!!!
