Oh, my! That is beautiful!
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.

Great figure on the top. I agree about Makore. Tough on my sinuses.

Wow, simply wow. Amazing wood and very nice work. I really like that detail on the ends of the top. So you called it a vanity but clearly it's not going to have a sink sitting on top of it, or is it?

That is beautiful! It is easy to understand your fascination of Makore. Don't see much of it here in the land of scrubby Mesquite trees.

Beautiful piece and I think the inspector approves. I love pics of your Shepherds,I think you have more than one,they are my favorite. I have a shepherd mix,collie I think,but my Trixie looks a lot like your dog.Not only do you have good tastes in dogs but are a beautiful craftsman as well.Sorry about getting off track.

That's a really nice piece. Beautiful wood and nicely executed! I see you've kept up that German Shepard Dog addiction. I "inherited" a GSD Rotty mix from a friend who moved out of the country. They really are nice dogs!
I still have a little of that Makore I got from you years ago. I'm saving it for something special but, so far, special hasn't come around.
