I first came across the writings and work of James Krenov while in college, and they have influenced my approach to the craft ever since. His signature piece was the cabinet-on-stand, and he made many throughout his career. Each one was an exploration of joinery, grain, and form. While this cabinet is definitely an ode to Krenov, my aim wasn't to create an exact reproduction. Instead, I wanted to tackle the design challenges the form presents. I hope this article prompts you to try a case of your own, whether based on this project or by following your own muse.
