    Default Whimsical Furniture

    I'm tempted to try something like this next:
    http://www.instructables.com/id/How-...40#previewlink

    If anyone attempts this before i get to it, I'm sure i have some questions so please let me know you are doing it, or if you have already done something like this, so i can ask some questions!

    I could see how you could draw the front and back "frames" for the furniture. And for the sides he talks about "bendable plywood" and i have seen it on tv and in videos, but don't think it is available anywhere around here.
    I believe it is just basically plywood that has been "kerfed" and i could see how on the backside of the front frame and the frontside of the back piece you could cut a mortise slot for the bendable plywood to fit into, but i'm a little unclear on how you would reinforce the frame internally to hold the shape?
    Since the sides would be only .25 thick how would you support the shelves and hold this together?
