I built this sideboard over the course of 9 months and did not use any power tools at all to build it.
This is the summary video of the entire walnut sideboard build which I documented in a 25-part series.

This project was first conceived in winter 2017, when my wife and I started designing the piece based on a number of different sideboards we had seen online. I tweaked the design over the course of a few months, off and on.
Then, since I am a teacher, it was a waiting game to begin the build during my summer break. So, in summer 2018, I bought the lumber from a local resident who supplies a variety of air-dried wood species.
From there, it was a matter of chipping away over time, and in the end, it was late March 2019 when I finished--so in total, it took 9 months.
I used no power tools at all during the build. So, even though I have a band saw, I did not use it. I didn't even use an electric drill.
Everything was 100% done by hand. The only electricity used was for the lighting and heating/air conditioning.
