For Christmas, my parents wanted me to make a second rolling cabinet for their camper, matching one I made two years ago.  

It was interesting to go through a process again with so much time - and hopefully more skill - in between.  Many parts of the build went more smoothly than I remember.  In particular, building and attaching the face frame and rear panels was much easier with Dominos.  Last time I did it with splines and brads.

I do still get frustrated working in plywood.  It just seems too easy to plane or sand through the veneer.  Also, I made the same mistake I made two years ago with the hinges.  The description on Lee Valley does not make the overlap measurement obvious and my design different from the hinges.  I ended up buying some adapters - a waste of money if I would have taken better notes or had better memory.

One more box
Showing off the last boxes led to a little commission from our friend Elizabeth for a small box to use as a salt cellar.  The box, bottom, and pull are cherry.  The top was more of that book-matched poplar panel I made up from some wood a neighbor pulled out of their attic.

More boxes
The last boxes were a "pre-reading" of sorts for a class I took last weekend with Fine Woodworking editor Matt Kenney.  It was a great experience up in Beverly, MA at Phil Lowe's school.  Here's Matt's tweet of the group and the result:

After the bed, I worked on a few small boxes.  The first started with a book-matched panel of some poplar with rich color.  I added tiny inlaid corners and a handle of walnut.  Shellac and wax finished it.

The second was a very small box, about 3x3x6.  I used straight grained cherry and arranged the top cross-grain for a change.  I finished with shellac.

It was time to move Lexie off a mattress on the floor and into a read bed.  I made this cherry twin bed for her.  It was my first bed build and it went very well.  Finish was arm-r-seal varnish.
