Board Layout Oversight :(

Finishing the back side of a drawer front and the grain 'popped' and looks
incredible! Than I looked at the front-side and the same grain wasn't
there! Damm it!! Not sure how I missed that one.

Ever happen to you?

P.S. Happy 4th!

Only the ones that I don't want to warp over time.

Do you finish the inside of your drawers?

Maybe you should now apply the finish to the front side of the drawer. ;~)

If the drawer front is false or unusually larger it may warp.

Drawers that are built with strong joints will not warp because they are
unfinished on the inside. Many prefer to not finish the insides so that the
natural aroma, read that as cedar, will not be covered up and many do not
want the long lingering smell of a finish in a closed container.
