Italian Corner Cabinet
-
Practice.
Based on photos of a piece from the early 20th Century.
Line style is Pencil Wires Heavy from the new 39 Pencil Effects set.

Belissima! I'm glad I don't have to shape that door.
Best,

Fantastic - as usual...
But how does that top-drawer actually "work" ?
Guides, runners, luck etc ?? -
Thank you, gentlemen.
TIG, I didn't have any photos showing the cabinet without the drawer so I don't have all the details but I'm thinking luck has a lot to do with it. There are guides on the sides to prevent the drawer from seating in crooked. They just don't show in the drawing. I can imagine a runner under the center of the drawer as a guide but I don't know if it's there. The drawer is basically trapped between the top and the panel underneath.
I think that drawer would be more work to make than it is worth.

I would have use a single diagonal guide.
Perhaps a 'dovetail' rail with a matching 'track' inset into the drawer's base ?Anyway, it was an 'aside'...
A wonderful model [as usual]. -
Thank you, sir.
I had thought it could be hinged like the door.

Just got the '39 pencils' set. Love em!
