About Me
- Nicholas Nelson
- From the Minneapolis, MN area I have a background in music and am a graduate of MCTC Cabinetmaking and the Inside Passage School of Fine Woodworking. My ventures in woodworking began with drum building where I quickly developed a desire to learn more. In my work I like to ponder subtle proportions and details, enjoy contemplating clean organic form and space, and am inspired by the play of liveliness and humble grace. At the end of the day I hope I’ve reached a level of harmony to experience through my process and share in its result.

ive always used the drawer bottom to stop the drawer, whats the benefit of gluing in stops behind the front?
That is some handsome desk. The wood looks awesome, drawer fronts are cool and looking forward to the final photos.
Heh well making drawer stops is probably a bit easier to finesse? Also, depending on construction, expansion. Say you have a cabinet with vertical grain for the sides of course. The cabinet is going to move much more (relatively speaking) than your drawer sides oriented perpendicular to the cabinet side. This just means that the reveal of your drawer fronts will change throughout the year. If you stop the drawer at the front leaving a little room in the it "cures" that "problem".
Thank you Jeff. I'm looking forward to photos as well :).
Nice work, as always. Would enjoy seeing a detail shot of the carved pulls.
Thanks Matt, I'll try to get you one.
