Projects

• Bow-front end table

The drawers on this formal project really stand out, but they're not the only woodworking challenge here. The fluted legs, beaded edging and glass smooth finish also deserve a closer look.

• Picture frame mouldings

With a few router bits and some scraps of wood, you can come up with a variety of mouldings for picture frames. Here are six examples you can build in a few hours.

• Hardware storage system

Inside the vertical drawers of this system, there are small, home-made bins that rest on adjustable shelves. What you end up with is a lot of room for storage without taking up much shelf space.
