    Mike, great fence. I looked at that once before...
    Is it made of platinum? Is there a spare shaper that comes with it? ;)

    Looks like a great addition though.

    Phil,
    I noted your post about bed-making. I've made several of these 4-poster beds from curly maple that are easy to assemble/disassemble, are GREAT fun to make, sit high enough to store material...

    iPod too Proprietary?? It works with Mac and any PC and uses MP3 files. How more generic can it get?

    10%

    Frank,
    Where do you live? I use 10% maple quite often. However, I am not in Arizona.

    If you use proper building techniques (ones with movement in mind) you should be ok in most areas.

    Wood piled outside

    I respectfully disagree with some suggestions here...

    Assuming the wood is kiln dried or air-dried to EMC:

    Didn't look like it was mentioned here before, but the Boggs round-bottom shave from Lie Nielsen is a gem! Not "cheap" but sure is nice.

    Cost

    What would a chair like this retail for? I would think that one would have to get at least $4K or so for it.
