Well,
I've been squealing away wood for this piece for a long time with the intention of building it for my wife and I. Of course as usual I told a customer about the piece I wanted to build and he said "perfect, I'll take it". I guess I can just call this one a practice run for the really nice one I will build the next time. The curly cherry came from Horizon Wood products where I get all my really nice cherry. The crotches came from my local wood guy Joe Ball. The inlay on top is holly and the secondary wood is poplar. I really want to get some good photos of it but the stinking thing is so heavy my back hurts every time I even think about moving it.
