Went the other way but have a hankering to do some cabinetry.
Closest I've come is my train table.
Sapele rescued from a 1960s staircase.
Hand cut mortice and tennons.

Last dovetails i cut was this, fake bookcase to hide consumer unit again hand cut and chiseled.
Cutting the books down was terrible, really dusty only readers digest likely would have been recycled.
Had a few people try to grab a book to read.

Replaced the sole plate in that house was and awful lot of work, loads on joints to cut. Was an amazing experience.
The structural posts were the morticed and tennoned no rot im those, the studs were rubbish wood most tennons had rotted away, they were doweled then made good.

Rings true here.
Usually snap a few pics while I'm pondering how to proceed.
End of the day it's the last thing on my mind.
