Sneak-Peak: The Frontier Desk

Just wanted to give you a little look at this week's project: a nifty nailed desk from America's frontier era. The picture I've posted here is a Fusion rendering, but there are more pictures and details in the discourse thread:

See you Saturday!

Charming that you daughter wanted hand in making the desk. I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Great video - short sweet, to the point, and pointed out the important things --where the wood is probably going to split (and did). A nice flat surface for your daughter to do her homework.

Nothin like a good table with a bum bum!

Saw you posted this and it reminded me of a piece of information I found when working on family history: "A slant-front desk made in 1790 for George Gelwicks (1739–1817) is the second earliest dated example of York County sulfur-inlaid furniture (figs. 175, 176). George was the son of Friedrich Heinrich Gelwicks (1712–1783), who emigrated from Germany by 1733, when he married Maria Dorothea Euler/Eiler at Providence (now Trappe), Montgomery County, Pennsylvania."
