Greene & Greene Style "Ribbon" Drawer Pull ( using CNC or Shaper Origin)

- How to make a Greene and Greene Style drawer pull. In this video I make what I call the "Ribbon Pull".
The pull is first blanked out using the Shaper Origin, but a CNC router works equally well.
I provide the drawings in both .svg and .dxf formats for free.

It's not all CNC work though. Once the pull is blanked out there's a lot of hand work to do.
The sizing of this particular pull fits my Fremont Nightstand. If you would like to build the nightstand - you can purchase the video project from the Wood whisperer's guild. thewoodwhisper...
The pull will also work nicely with my Aurora End Table/ Nightstand . I wrote an article on this piece for Woodwork Magazine in 2010. You can download the article for free from my website.

The pull's use is not limited to the projects listed above. It will work well in other Greene and Greene Stye projects as well.
Now I know the difference between the usual bedside table offered everywhere and real woodworking. I will buy the course on the Guild site and give it a go. Thanks
thanks, John
Nicely done Darrell! I really enjoy your content. I ordered the Origin earlier this week primarily for joinery and also using it to make finger joints on G&G drawers. I was thinking of using a pointed roundover bit in the Origin for pillowing the ends of the fingers. I will have to experiment to find out when it arrives. Steve
Thanks Steve, Let me know how the roundover bit works.
Nice to see you using a SO, as I own one as well, I’m always looking for new uses. :). Well done (again).
Thanks, Michael!
Thank you for always being so generous with your knowledge, skill and downloads! I have, indeed, purchases a couple of your plans from Wood Whisperer and a template from you. THANKS A MILLION!!
Thank you - You are wo welcome!
Awesome video
Darrell... thanks for another informative video. Looks like you graciously passed out some of your secret skills. Thank you for that. Thanks also for the SVG. I’ll give it a go just to see where I end up. I’m not using the SO for much joinery or work like you are demonstrating. I love hand sanding. I work in my shop late at night when the air is cool. Nothing like listening to the crickets and hand sanding.
You're Welcome! I'm like you but at the other end of the day. I love getting out in the shop in the very early morning when all is quiet and there's no distractions.
Great craft and much improved video editing! Thanks a lot!
Thanks, Amol. The video editing is still a work in progress - I am getting better but still have some improvements to make.
Hi Darrell. Nice work, as usual. I downloaded the Ribbon Pull file from your website and unzipped it, but only 3 files are listed. A JPG file, a DXF file, and a Microsoft Edge file showing a ribbon pull drawing but no SVG file. What do you suppose I am doing wrong? Scott Tews
I wish I could find a Patternmaker vise like that. I may have to resort to HMT Gordon's new vise though it's a lot of money.
Highland Hardware used to make a scaled down version of the Emmert Vise but I don't see it listed anymore.
@@DarrellPeartFurnitureMaker Yeah, I checked there too.
A question for all those who can relate to my issue. I’m 68; been an amateur woodworker for 45 years plus but am barely computer literate. Okay, I know a bit more than switch on and off; I’m pretty good at excel spreadsheets but the Shaper Origin frightens me. By that I mean, it’s a big old chunk of money for anyone and will my admitted lack of patience mean I give up on it before I see rewards. It then becomes a very expensive paper weight.
Am I worrying over nothing; is it easy to pick up; are there good tutorials for us oldies (Shaper Origin for Dummies)?
I am 71 yo - and not by nature a tech guy. But I appreciate what tech can do, so I dive into that world and absorb only enough to get by. I have several techie friends I rely upon to help me out from time to time.
The Shaper Origin is quite easy to understand. I also have a CNC machine . While the SO is much easier to operate - it is also limited when compared to my CNC.
An easy way to avoid cutting a completed pocket is to turn it into a guide ( a guide never produces a tool paths, and is the lowest priority when selecting )
Thanks Sam - great tip!
Hi Darrell,
My bad.
I now see that the Edge file is actually an SVG file.
All should be well now.
Thanks, Scott Tews
Yes - that confused me at first too.
Another great tutorial - thanks for posting. Thumbs up!
Thanks, Steve. You're Welcome!
