The Cherry Desk build from start to finish! From tree to finished product!
I wanted to build a desk for myself from the cherry wood that I dried last year in the solar kiln. I had in mind a skinny legs modern looking desk with a drawer aside. The small thickness of the lumber (1") kinda limited me in designs, but I was inspired by a desk made by Tim Rousseau in Fine Woodworking Magazine, where I adopted the same design of the legs and stretchers but inverted, with the high sloped legs in front, so this way the drawer will make an equilibrium.
For the drawer I came up with a compound miters on the front and the rails, left the front a bit wider and longer to compensate for eventual misalignments or future tabletop twists, instead of having them perfect flushed on the edges. Any small movement would have made a visible gap when closing the drawer.
The whole desk is made and connected with hand tool joinery: angled Tee Bridle joints, angled Wedged Mortise and Tenon, Sliding Dovetails, Lap Joints etc. And the frame assembly has no glue! All the pieces are relying on wedges and friction. Finished with danish oil.

Very sharp joinery skills, nice of you to share and I learned a lot. Thank you.

Two years late to the party Adrian, but beautiful, minimalist piece. I too, love to use the sap wood in cherry and walnut to blend my glue seams. That top is killer.

Nice video, Adrian. Your desk looks great. The small accents, like the walnut wedges, make it very vivid. It was fun to watch it all in one video. I used to make a cherry wardrobe with a hat shelf. Even with hand tools, it was great fun. Stay healthy. Have a nice weekend.

Well, that preconception was definitely put to shame in these fine 10 minutes. You've got yourself a new subscriber.

Thanks! Surprising for me it did not took that much, or not as much as older ones :) I think also because I had a lot of takes to choose from to build the story more fluid and fast (had 900 videos all build, and used 250 here), and also the music pacing made the editing smooth, it's helping a lot to stick to specific intervals of time.
