Woodworking Project - Dining Room Buffet/Sideboard

---

Back to the Rolling "M" Workshop Projects Page

As with many traditional pieces of furniture, this piece can go by more than one name. Some call it a buffet, some call it a sideboard, and some call it a hunt-board. When my wife asked for one, she called it a buffet; so, that's what I'm calling it. She has always wanted a good place to store table linens, place mats, and all of those dining table accessories that only come out when company comes for dinner. And, since the 5th Wedding Anniversary is known as the "wood anniversary", a woodworking project seemed like a natural choice. This project not only kept me from roaming the stores looking for a suitable anniversary gift, but also fulfilled our need for a place to store all of our dining room odds and ends.
