the main case and the veneer used for the stretchers was quarter sawn white oak but the legs and some of the secondary veneer used was just flat sawn.
about 36 inches wide, 24 inches tall, 12 inches at its deepest. The finish is top oil satin from Osmo.
The case was pretty straight forward, dovetails cut in a hybrid way. The tails were cut using a wedge and the bandsaw. The pins were cut using a hand saw and then the tails were cleaned up using a router with a bearing. If you want the hand cut look with small pins, I highly recommend this method. It also allows you to stay in touch with the hand tool side of things. But you end up with dead square cuts on the tails so and super clean baselines.
The back is in a rabbet and is 1/4 box store ply, veneered with flat saw WO commercial veneer. I used my vac bag (manual style) to do this. commercial veneer on large panels is a bit of a pain as it will start curling and soaking up whatever glue you use. but it was a secondary part so no big deal. I'm going to build a second one of these and will likely put the back in a groove just so make it a bit easier. it came out super clean I think.
The base was a whole piece of furniture in itself. The legs are splayed 6 degrees in both directions. The front stretch is curved to match the curve of the case.
Front stretcher - I used 6 pieces of 1/8 bending plywood with commercial veneer (a good way to clean out your stash) cross banding in between. Then I edge banded and face veneered with shopsawn QS WO from the same batch as the case.
Non-curved stretchers - I ended up using leftover plywood and veneer on those just because I had a bunch of both and not much WO left over.
I established a master angle and used that to setup the table saw and act as a carriage for the mortiser. I used a homemade slot mortiser and for the tenons I used my multi-router. I was a ton of work for a somewhat minor detail. but I like the look.
I wanted turned legs but the complexity was getting too far. Angled, curved, pieces going into a round leg seemed a bridge too far. So I settled on shaped legs that taper down to nearly round. The reveal is nice and the transition from sqaure to roundish is okay. I think they fit the piece.
