Silverware Drawer using living hinge technique

advtrvlr · March 25, 2021, 8:28pm

Well, I finally finished the silverware drawer I’ve been wanting fo a long time.

I used the living hinge idea for the curved holders of the spoons, and finger joints on the forks and knives. The back of the drawer has a steak knife rack. One of my more practical projects done on the Glowforge!

I love it. I don’t think I’ve seen one shaped like this! (Out of wood.)

How’s your wood finished? It looks nice.

I used baltic birch - 1/8" for the holders and 1/4" for the drawer itself.
I just sanded to 180 grit, then stained the wood and finished with Spar Varnish.
