As for tools I know I'm super lucky, my Dad does furniture building as a hobby so I have a full workshop to use. <br />I have noticed a lot of community workshop/maker spaces popping up in cities, maybe one is near you?Kristine PaperDollMiniatureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04348940337267272223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776777711016680502.post-56673038693301545762017-05-08T09:05:04.151-04:002017-05-08T09:05:04.151-04:00I figured it was time to try the big tools out!

I found it's a bit of a learning curve to scale woodworking techniques to this size. <br />....Honestly I'm a little worried of turning this place into a giant maple box! ;) But I think the doors will be pretty too, thanks Pepper!Kristine PaperDollMiniatureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04348940337267272223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776777711016680502.post-39449704640864359642017-05-08T08:58:03.963-04:002017-05-08T08:58:03.963-04:00Thanks Kat, there is actually a Lee Valley store 1...Thanks Kat, there is actually a Lee Valley store 15 minutes away from me! I forgot they sold veneers! I used to think they were really expensive...but now that I think of it, they're not that much different in price then the hardwood I bought. <br />I'm sure you'll be able to find a spot in Toronto, maybe do a search for specialty hardwood stores there? It's honestly hard to tell if they'll have what you need until you are actually there. Hope you find a spot!Kristine PaperDollMiniatureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04348940337267272223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776777711016680502.post-69806648288867968462017-05-08T07:26:18.361-04:002017-05-08T07:26:18.361-04:00That maple is gorgeous.

You never cease to amaze!<br /><br />I have to find one of these wood stores near Toronto. I was lamenting about that today to my poor husband!<br /><br />But, if you want an awesome (and I mean awesome) selection of very thin veneers, Lee Valley sells them. The big order ships in a large pizza box. It's veneer heaven. kittyandkatminiatureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05793964941113725631noreply@blogger.com
