Build a circa 1750-1775 shaving mirror reproduction. At 14-3/16" wide, 7-1/4" deep, and 21-3/4" high, it's an enjoyable design for most woodworker to build. It is an unusual project from an unusual time in our country's history. All parts and construction are shown on the plan in full-size detail. If you want a true reproduction in all respects, the inside portion of the mirror frame should be embossed and finished in old gold plating. Plan includes instructions for making simple embossing tools. The project is small enough to make it do-able by most levels of woodworkers.
All joinery is shown in actual size, curved workpieces are all in full size and you can measure and trace straight from the drawing. A bill of materials doubles as an exact cutting list, there is a detailed exploded diagram, and all hardware requirements are provided. The exploded diagram is so detailed that project specific assembly instructions are not provided. A special booklet entitled Guide to Building Wood Furniture is included with each Furniture Designs, Inc. plan and includes many tips explaining the "component theory" of woodworking.
