Hey all
I started documenting this in another thread here, but thought I should make a seperate thread for the remainder.
I have the drawers completed and fitted, I have scraped the carcass all around, filled in the two grooves on the sides with more walnut and I'm ready to make some handles.
I turned up a rough knob in walnut. Chucked a small piece in the drill press and went at it with some files. I quite liked it (can be seen in this pic just infront of the bottom drawer, but I dont think it really went with it.
So I came up with this (rough mock up again) which seems much more fitting.
front and side edges rounded over and underneath hollowed out a bit.
I'm just not sure how to go about attaching it when I've made the real ones. A small tenon on the back glued in? Dont really want to screw from the inside of the drawer if I can help it.
