In this final part of a three part series on the curved shoe bench we handle finishing cuts, veneer work and completion.

This is the first of three parts in which I take you step by step on how I manufactured this unique and stylish curved bench made from Sapele Hardwood and Veneer. First we tackle the design, build the frame and deal with a sheet of EconoKore in order to form the fundamental framework for the bench.

In this second installment regarding the manufacturing of the curved shoe bench, we glue the EconoKore, deal with clamp distribution and adhere the inner sheet of veneer.

To find cabinets projects, we used to cold call, but that was hit or miss. Now we study building permits, research the builder and see if its a fit. This has led to cabinet projects, referrals and requests for quotes.

This second entry regarding the large Ash wood table outlines the final woodworking steps that led to its completion.
