Lot of learning occured with this project! It was built for my second child to match the crib I had previously built. We did a lot of shopping online until we found a dresser we liked and I made my design from there. After the initial facing was built my wife decided she wanted the drawers to be deeper for clothing so we started over. Getting the veneer top right was the biggest challenge, the veneer is my own creation and totally homemade. The sides are also veneer but weren't as challenging. The hardest part may have been getting it up the steps from my basement woodshop, it is heavy!
"I live in NJ, and wish there was a physical store near where I live. My experience with rockler.com is second to none. Not only are your products first rate, but customer service/product support is exceptional. I've called several times, and never received someone on the other end of the phone who was anything but extremely helpful, patient, and friendly. The biggest compliment I can give is that I TRUST Rockler for all my woodworking needs. The only other store I can say that about is LL Bean. My wood working friends in western NJ love Rockler. Keep on keepin' on - and get a store here in Jersey!!" -
