I have been flipping through the heaps of pictures we took on our holiday,
and found a few that may be of interest here on the Porch.  There have
been complaints levelled at me for the vast number of close-up shots of
joinery and carvings, as well as jeering from the audience in regards to
my methods.  Apparently lying on the floor to take photos of the underside
of tables and cabinets is a source of ridicule.

But I had fun, so who cares, eh?  On to the pictures!

Here's a simple one, layout lines on dovetails.  This was on a short
cabinet, maybe 5 ft tall, and it had a crown molding across the top,
but not down the sides.  I suspect it was made to fit into a niche
someplace.

It gets more interesting.  Here's a shot of the top side, where you
can see the pegs used to pin the crown in place.  The bit that
intrigues me here is the cutout on the end of the stile.  It would
be mildly curious, except for the fact the another reasonably
short cabinet (there were not too many of these, but there
were LOADS of really tall ones!) has the same cutout stile.
So I wonder what the cut out part of the stile is for?

set of flutes (or is that reeds?)

I looked around when I saw this piece, and since no one was
looking I reached out and touched it.  Ran my finger up and
down the flutes.  The main part is scraped I think, as it's reasonably
straight and smooth and even.  The ends are not, they have quite
obviously been carved - no routahs here!  You can feel it, not sure
it you can see it.

What else have I got here...  Oh, some moldings.  Built up crowns
on the top of cabinets.  Most of them were up against walls, so not
visible form the back, but a few wide cabinets were against narrow
sections of wall, so you could see the bits normally unseen.

I think Peter Follansbee would love this place.   So much carved
oak furniture, and done in that "close enough is good enough" style.
So much of the carving looked amazing from half way across the
room, but up close it is uneven and almost rough looking.   This
one is fabulous, I love the way it catches the light, but nothing is
symmetrical or really accurate (in the modern machine-made style).
  It looks great!

PG">http://galootcentral.com/components/cpgalbums/userpics/10074/100_5564.JPG

This one here is dated 1642 and apart from a cracked panel
is in remarkable shape.  The carvings are still clean and crisp
and not as dirty as some of the others (ok, not as  *patinated*).

PG">http://galootcentral.com/components/cpgalbums/userpics/10074/100_5561.JPG

Check out this one, the carvings appear to have been reworked
or amended or something.  I wonder if it was the maker who did
this, or was it someone later on making a change due to some
damage?  I'm thinking it was the carver who made a mistake,
and left some evidence to confound me.

PG">http://galootcentral.com/components/cpgalbums/userpics/10074/100_5744.JPG

One more thing I noticed about the carvings is that some of them
appear to have been done after assembling the piece.  Here's
one that has the carvings outside the boundaries of the panels.
You might have done this as separate pieces, but I think it would
have been easier after assembly.

​ And this one I thought was really cool.  The carvings are very
bold​ and deep, none of this scratching the surface business.
But look, you can see where the panel and the stile have slipped
a bit, exposing what appears to be layers of carving.  I think the
carver and the joiner were different guys, or at least different jobs.
I pointed this out to one of the nearby museum staff, she was
surprised, and had never really thought about how the furniture
was made.  She followed us through that gallery, listening to
me expound on the joinery techniques and the evidence that
indicated how the work was put together.

How else to see them?  Honestly!  I've enjoyed all the photos.

'Spect you're right.  Although, I restored a front molding on a whale
tail press that was flat on the sides and contoured across the front.
There was no question of it having been built into anything.

Curious.  I've replaced crown moldinges on 18th Century cupboards,
but they were all nailed in place.  No idea about the cut-outs in
the stiles.

Flutes.  I love finding layout lines.

Yep, I see it.

Lots to learn!  I've learned some very interesting and useful things 
from
repairing old work.

Be my guess, too.

I've seen this technique before.  Years ago in a museum in Boston,
there was a new exhibit.  They had carefully disassembled a 16th or
early 17th Century pub.  The walls and ceiling were fully wainscotted
oak.  The rails and stiles had beaded edges.  Looking closely, it was
apparent the rails had been beaded and then cut to receive the stiles.
The stiles were beaded but where they butted into the rails, the beading
had been cut by hand, just like your photo.

That's a real thrill, isn't it?

Well, they're both pretty impressive...

I am that man.  

The family stay clear of me whenever we visit castles, houses, museums.  Amazing
how helpful the guardians can be about ‘no photos’ when you explain it isn’t the
fabulous ON the table, it’s the mechanism on the underside you want to photo.
