Woodsmith Craftsman-Style Bride’s Chest Standard Plan & Premium Shop Drawings
You don’t have to be a new bride to appreciate the beauty and utility of this traditional chest. The Craftsman-style design is loosely based on a Gustav Stickley original from the early 1900s. The design is both timeless and straightforward to build. The steel corners are easy to make using common shop tools, and a few simple metalworking techniques. Plus, the cedar lining makes this chest a great place to store blankets and linens.
You can purchase the Woodsmith Craftsman-Style Bride’s Chest standard plan or the supplemental premium shop drawings as a downloadable PDF or in a printed format that we ship to you.
