Wide panel glue ups with rough twisted and cupped lumber
Wondering how to approach this. I have the ability to straighten up to 12” wide lumber effectively but nothing over that. I buy from a local kiln dried luhardwood place and he will plane join etc but it costs extra. So thinking of just ripping to max width I can deal with and then gluing up panels but have never done it with warped twisted cupped wood. Worried about after flattening and straightening the edges not matching up. Any advice?

Thanks for the tips. Let me clarify I have rough cut stock anywher from 13” to 15” wide. The toy box is 12” deep meaning lid needs to be 13” wide for over hang. I initialy just though rip the 15” bosrds in half then straightening, glue up rip down to size. I dont have alot of room to rip multiple times losing an 1/8” each rip and then of course straightening outside edges of each board. Not so much worried about warping after glue up just disnt know how ripping, then straightening and flattening, would effect gluing back up at original rip if that makes sense

"bunny ears" chair
For the first anniversary of my granddaughter, I made her two "bunny ears" chairs. Unfortunately I forgot to make pictures of the build process.

Hall cabinet
My daughter in law asked me to make a hall cabinet (to put shoes and other accessories in). I had to build it as per the picture and as per the exact measurements she gave me 🤔. I had no room for my own input 😥. For the build I used green MDF (sturdier than the standard MDF). Since there are no handles, I had to use Blum hinges (with push to open) for the doors and f Blum movento (with soft close and push to open) for the drawer. Hereunder a few pictures of the build process.

i think im going to route in t tracks for stop blocks etc. i keep going back and forth on the extended fence and then making flip over stop blocks…Im using this also as an out feed for the table saw whichbis just going to be a jobsite saw on a mobile frame at table height so I can roll it to whatever side of this bench I want. Honestly my plan on this have changed multiple times. All theee sections originally were going to be modular so you coukd put them in any variation you wanted and now Im at this
