Stump Creek Mule Chest Free Plans From Traditional Woodworking

 

 
The Stump Creek Mule Chest is a measured drawing of an antique made of Cherry we found in a home when installing a new set of kitchen cabinets. The raised panels are hand carved into all four sides of the chest. The legs are turned with a four sided taper on the bottom. This is a fun project. When we built our first one we tried to replicate the original as near possible. We've built many of these for customers and all of them were painted and distressed with milk paint.
There are four 24" x 36" plot drawings and material cut-list with this set of plans. The plans are drawn full size with a full size leg template.
