I quit my job in March and started a woodworking business.

It's solid walnut with maple kumiko panels and brass hardware

It's a custom design

The milled lumber for the case

All the parts

Halfblind dovetails secure the top of the case

I do all my joinery by hand. This is a mortise after I've drilled with a brace and bit, I square it up with my chisel.

The bottom before shaping

Preparing for final construction.

The waxed shelves.

Really proud of the piece.

And I just launched a website with some other pieces: www.orhanwoodwork.com

Also, here is my instagram: https://www.instagram.com/orhanwoodwork/

FP edit: WOW imgur's response to my work has been so incredibly generous, especially considering how many other woodworkers even more talented than me are on here.

I'm trying to respond to all questions as they come in but I'm a little inundated so it might take a bit.

A lot of people are asking if I take commissions/deliver/have anything for sale. I do take commissions. I'm based in Kansas City (a fact I should have put on my website) and will deliver within four hours for a small fee or within an hour of downtown kc for free. If you want something outside of this radius I'll have to do crated shipping which is kind of expensive.

Thank you so much for all of your incredible support. I'm so glad you all appreciate craftsmanship and hope that those of you wanting to try it do because it's been life changing for me.
