In the Workshop.

Our garage has been turned into a temporary wood shop.

David has been working diligently to build the children a new bunk bed/crib. Today he worked on the drawers that will go under the bottom bed. He nailed the drawers together last night, and today he used a router to bevel the front pieces.

He sanded them,

glued them to the frames,


and put a coat or two of lacquer on the front.


He used birch plywood for the drawer boxes, and red oak for the fronts. The whole bed - everything showing on the outside - is red oak as well. The only thing that isn't red oak are the dowels on the crib railing.

It's going to be just beautiful when it's done!
