I just scored 60-odd bd ft of beautiful curly cherry. I want to make a side table, TV table, or pair of nightstands with the wood; depends on what plans I find. This wood is *so* figured and curly I think it would be overkill to use it for all visible parts of the furniture. It would be stunning for the table top, door panels, drawer fronts, that sort of thing. I am just drawing a blank on what wood to use for the cabinet frame, rails and stiles, etc. My ISP can not provide access to rec.binaries.woodworking (or whatever site) to view submissions from newsgroup reviewers, so I am not able to browse those pictures.
Any ideas on what would go with curly figured cherry? I know this is a wide-open question, but when I think of, say, oak as the frame wood, I just can't see it. Maple and cherry might work but I'd need to see an example of it. Can't get the visual part of my brain around this one.
Any suggestions or URLs for pictures gratefully appreciated.
