Every great piece of furniture starts with an important decision of choosing the right wood.
In this video I explain why I selected beech wood and why it will make an excellent choice.
After decades of building cabinets and furniture, I have learned that success begins before the first cut. You will also get a peak at the beautiful turned legs and the design for this build.

In this video you will learn...

~why beech is an excellent choice
~the characteristics of beech wood
~how wood selection affects the finished project

This is part 1 of a four-part series where I build a decorative beech nightstand from
start to finish.

Thanks, Wes
