We've started to renovate our bathroom and as I'm doing most of the work it made sense to incorporate some video projects. I'm making the vanity first from a local hardwood (Gympie Messmate) which I picked up from Darcy at Mooloo Timbers. Check them out here www.moolootimberco.com.au
I still need to make a sink, a mirror cabinet and a built in cupboard. And on top of that the waterproofing, tiling and painting. Let me know if you want to see videos of these.
As always I'm happy to answer any questions.

That's not just any big kangaroo, that's Matilda, the mascot of the '82 Brisbane Commonwealth Games.

To make it taller, just make a decorative spacer to go between the apron and the cabinet. It'll look great and no one will ever know you didn't intend it to be that way.

I'm so happy that you continue to build things. Others have quit building, one resorted to being a shill for some company,one tells jokes, one complains about the government,one shows how to sharpen a chisel,and lastly another shows how to cut a dovetail by hand. I really enjoy watching you make things.

I have loved that style of handle ever since I seen Ramon valdez use something similar them on his creations.

I love those drawer handles!! When i saw the thumbnail and the vid title, i did as I usually do and tried to figure out how I'd make handles like that. I had it pretty well worked out before starting the video, and as usual, i was nowhere near right. Not even close. And usilng the belt sander instead of router to shape the handles surprised me. What a beautiful solution that was!! Thank you once again for a fantastic, entertaining, and educational video As usual.

Neil, this is another beautiful piece and a testament to your ever growing mastery. Thank you for sharing it with us. The handles are elegant and organic looking, like if you'd persuade the tree to grow them like this. Your jigs.. they are simple, efficient and once I see them, they make total sense. But I would have crazy difficult time to come up with them myself. Your brain, and spatial and geometric perception are on another level, I think. I also really enjoy the production quality of your videos. Thank you for showing us a bit of stunning Australia too! Have a nice day

Really lovely piece, and a nice change of pace from shop furniture videos. If you don't use dowels often enough to buy or make a doweling jig, dowel centers work well. Making a set of dowel centers would be a nice little project for the metal lathe.
