dovetailed chest of drawers

My small dovetailed jewelry chests are ready now to sand and assemble prior to making the drawers. One is walnut, one is cherry and one is being made from ash. I never make anything this complex and challenging without making a few mistakes. But that's part of being human, isn't it?

The walnut stretcher near the bottom of the box is intended to do the job of holding the sides and top square, while also being hidden from view by the bottom drawer.

Make, fix, forgive and create.
