OK, Dave. Now that I am completely depressed over my lack of ability, I will just go back to my cave and beat on things. BTW, Looks like those claw feet are picking up some wooden apples. Stunning work as always.

As usual all of it is outstanding. I mostly like that very last piece the most though, the small hanging cab with the rat tail hinges.
Whats the story with the piece with the initials and date?

The sound you hear is me shutting the door on my shop, the clicking of the lock, and the kerplunck of the key hitting the surface of the pond.
Your work is absolutely gorgeous!!! As soon as I learn how to scuba dive so I can retrieve my shop key, I'm going to have to work on my woodworking skills.

Dave,
Can you share your curly maple finishing schedule for the first piece at the top of the page? Seems like you might use that same finish for all your curly maple pieces? As usual, your work is outstanding! Thanks for posting. Oh, and yes, we want to see it all.

Jaw hits the floor! Love the claw feet in particular but all stunning.

Steve N said: The piece with the initials and date was originally built for my wife. Of course someone came to my shop to pick up another piece and just had to have it and offered me significantly more that my asking price to build them on just like it. My wife still has the drawer front at least with a promise to build her another one some day.
