Build This Modern V A N I T Y * HERE'S a mahogany vanity of modern design that you can build in your own workshop. The design features a criss-cross moulded design on the drawer fronts and sides as shown in the drawing on the following page. The drawing is self-explanatory with the exception of a few details such as the method of cutting this criss-cross design. The various sections of the drawer fronts an sides are made in separate pieces for this purpose. The strips on which this design appears are 3/4" thick, the V-cuts made with circular saw moulding cutter set "K" are cut 1/8" deep and 3/4 inches apart. These strips are then doweled to the smooth pieces which are 5/8" thick to form the drawer fronts and sides. The drawer front and side strips are nailed temporarily together and the moulding cuts are made as shown in photograph No. 2 so that they line up when the vanity is assembled.
