In this video, I make the dovetailed front rail, the sliding dovetail drawer divider, and the internal structure of the desk. From there, it's glue up!

I am making a simple writing desk for my son's birthday. He doesn't really need one, but I promised my daughter I'd make her a vanity table/desk for her birthday, so that meant my son would have to have one, too. (FYI, the project was completed a little while ago, so it's already on my Instagram, see below)
As usual, this is a 100% hand tools project, not even a battery powered drill.
This will be a series, but not an extensive one. In this first part, I rough cut the main case components: the 4 legs and 3 main rails.
If there is interest, I'll make some sketchup plans, but in reality, it's not very necessary.
