The wife wanted special custom made night stands with tapered legs for our spare bedroom. They had to be a certain size to fit between the headboard and the wall.
I made 2 of them out of walnut and stained them dark polyshades.

Greg, that's beautiful! I especially like the profile on the top, combined with the molding underneath it.

Great work! I love the design and the moulding makes the piece pop!
Very nice. Never seen a drawer built quite like that. Was that your idea?
Any pictures after finishing?

The molding and cove around the top make for a sophisticated appearance, I really like it. Did you make the molding? How's that finish to work with, apply, coverage, coats? Nice tables.

Hi Bill- The finish is OK it is poly-shades espresso with 2 coats. The molding I did make on the router table but it was my wife's idea in the first place.Quote:
