CapZark Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Question - what was the fist year that Cornwalls did NOT have a butt joint edge? I much prefer the mitered edge veneer, so I am really looking for the year cut-off between the miter and the butt. Does it merry with the CW1 and CW2 (all CW 1s have butts and all CW2 and 3s have miters?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnA Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Butt joints were used in the decorator cabinets. Decorator cabinets were made for all years the Cornwall was made. By inference, that likely means mitered, veneered cabinets were also made in all years. You just want to avoid a model designation of CD-BR or CD-FR (decorator, raw birch or raw fir). You will see C-WO and C-OO more than any other. That means Oiled Walnut and Oiled Oak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djk Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 In about 1985 they started making the unfinished Cornwall (and Heresy) with miter joints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
