That looks great mailee :thumbright:

The wood looks good but a wishy washy White would also look good.

Hi,

Lovely job mailee; dovetail joints? Are you using a contrasting colour to touch the name in with? A future heirloom for the child as well.

Kind regards, Col.

Got this completely finished today. The soft close stays arrived so I had a break from machining the Oak and got it fitted. Here is the wishy washy white finish.

Thanks Hitch. I use the Dakota jig from Rutlands. It is so much easier and quicker to set up than most of them.
