Reminiscent of a typical bookkeeper's desk in a 19th. Century mercantile, this
attractive reproduction will be at home in virtually any decor. It offers a
large amount of storage and a number of possible adaptations. The lidded compartment
can be eliminated to reveal an attractive writing desk, or a mirror can be added
to the underside of the lid and you have an unusual but very useful vanity.
The plan includes extensive drawings, but this is still a project for intermediate
to advanced skill levels. Included are tapered legs, breadboard joinery (on
the lid), some scrollwork and lots of dadoes and rabbets. A fun challenge!
Note: this plan is a photocopy of the original article. Shipping and handling is free for photocopied plans. Your order total will show a shipping charge, but it will be removed on your invoice.
