LOML saw this plant stand made of iron and it became the "Inspiration" because she asked me to make a wooden version.

Nicely done!
Steam bent or lamination?

Very, very,
You did a great job of replicating the piece in wood.

I like that, nice job D. Betting LOYL likes that too

How did you lay out the cuts on the top, and is that Pine, or Oak?

Now that's just too cool!
I started with absolutely nothing. Now, thanks to years of hard work, careful planning, and perseverance, I find I still have most of it left.
