I heard we are doing walnut credenzas now. Made this one for my brother for Christmas. (lemm.ee)

For some clarity, I did not make the speakers, but attempted to match the wood as closely as I could for the credenza.

Beautiful work!very nice design too. Is the carcass all miter joints? That’s great skill. Did you glue them? Is there dowels or biscuits or anything holding them together?

The one I did is just glue on the miters but I wish I had the skills and tools to reinforce them

The outside corners are indeed all miter joints. In hindsight, I'd do splines. I did reinforce the bottom miters with dowels, but the top miters were tight enough that I felt comfortable with just glue.
