Glad to help. I wouldn’t have wanted to miss those pieces. They look great. Nice work.

Bill,
Super work!! What material are the breadboard ends? The contrast is the perfect compliment to the piece.

Thank you. This was my first time working with Bubinga. It probably won't be my last.
Next up I'll be using some hard maple. I'm just not sure what it will be.

Well done, Bill. Did you attach the breadboard ends in the conventional way, or?

Great work on all three pieces Bill. I really like the Armoire, it's my favorite!
Bubinga is beautiful and you selected a great finishing method that did not alter the awesome color of the wood.
Well done!

Thanks John. I used Dominos for the breadboard ends. A center one is glued in place, while the others are glued to the Ebony with a wider 'mortise' on the Bubinga. I've done this before with Oak and Walnut a few years ago and so far, so good.
