I have just completed a set of plans for a Bombe Chest of Drawers that I recently measured at the Toledo Museum of Art. It is a beautiful piece. The procedure for obtaining the plans will be different than for the clock. The museum requires a signed release form before I can distribute the plans. After completion of the form, I will e-mail the plans to members who are interested. I also have many detailed photographs of the chest that need to be sent on a CD.
The plans are in PDF format ( 10 E+ size sheets), plus a PDF file of the 3D model which can be opened up in Acrobat reader 9.0. The model can be rotated and different parts turned on and off to see the construction details. The chest dates from 1760-80 from the Boston area.
Since the museum was very kind in letting me measure the chest, I have decided to allow members who wish a copy of the plans to donate $20 to the museum. Let me know what you think of this idea.
Only current SAPFM members will be allowed to receive the plans.
I have tried to attach a photo of the chest, I hope it works.
