The tapering curves of the mahogany headboard made in this episode display a subtle elegance in the simple design. Shaped using a template, the frame is joined together with wood splines. A mahogany panel is set into the frame giving the piece strength and rigidity. The rails are attached using loose tenon joinery ad the rich finish is achieved using a mixture of potassium dichromate to bring out the warm tones of the wood.
