It took 6 months but I finally completed this 18th century secretary desk. My first project with all hand cut dovetails. It was a fun but challenging project. Thanks for looking.

Oh, wow....that is gorgeous!
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 work, and for me, that would have taken at least a year.
