One of my favorite projects is the Byrdcliffe Linen Press that I built for the April 2006 issue of Popular Woodworking Magazine. It’s one of the 14 project articles included in my new book “Classic Arts & Crafts Furniture: 14 Timeless Designs”. When the original article was published, we posted full-size patterns for the sassafras leaves on the doors online.
We’ve upgraded the magazine website several times since then, and while the patterns are still available, the route to find them has more than a few twists and turns. Unfortunately when the book was being edited, an incorrect link was included.
If you are looking for the full-size patterns for the doors of the Byrdcliffe Linen Press:
If you print them out at full scale on legal size paper, you’ll be one step closer to reproducing the doors.
Here are some supplies and tools we find essential in our everyday work around the shop. We may receive a commission from sales referred by our links; however, we have carefully selected these products for their usefulness and quality.
Bob,
Thanks for the leaf pattern file. The Birdcliff Linen Press is on my shortlist for project.
Thanks Bob, this is one of my woodworking goals to make this beauty.
