Nice work Wayne. How did you bead the stiles and rails? Milled into the stiles and rails or applied to the opening. If milled, how did you miter the beads? I am working on a way to route the miters with a Woodrat and will eventually post the technique.

Hey Bill,

I beaded the stiles and rails on my shaper. I cut the stiles to except the rails on my table saw and cut the miter on the rails in my chop saw.

I would be interested your method once you come up with it.

Wayne,

My approach is to use a 45 degree chamfer bit in a router to cut the miters and then an up spirl bit to remove the appropriate bead. I have tried your approach and I can't get the quality of the joint the way I want it. I will post a picture once I get around to doing it.

I like the legs, gives more of a furniture look, the finish is great too.

Thanks Lamar,

It's just a satin conversion varnish over natural cherry!
