    New guy pictures

    I keep seeing everyone ask for pictures so here's and attempt. If this doesn't work I'll be asking Chris Pidilla for computer help (think he knows how?)

    Cecil, don't know if you had any help with posting the pics, but you certainly do NOT need any help in the execution of your woodworking abilities! Very, very nice! I especially like the table in the top pic. Keep 'em comin'!
    Cheers,

    New guy pictures

    Cecil,

    Walnut I'm sure, my favorite wood. How did you finish it? Looks beautiful!

    Your pictures are a little too large to fit in the page, i.e., you have to scan right/left to see the whole picture. Your pixels are at 800x600 and should be something like 640x460. A lot of the SMC users use PIXresizer (search the web) to make the picture smaller, but I've yet to master it. I use Window Explorer to resize mine.

    Regards, Joe

    New Guy pics!

    Cecil,
    Though from Wisconsin, I've been a Cub fan since before they won their last World Series. When I look at your pics, all I can think of is Harry Carey yelling, "HOLY COW!!". Nice work, guy, and WELCOME to the CREEK!!

    With regard to Chris (aka San Josey), how can anyone who sits on the beach all day consuming Bahama Mamas and watching "California Girls" know anything of value. Don't let the EE degree fool you. He has probably forgotten Ohn's Law and thinks that Kirchoff's Law is some new way to sneeze into a rag. Don't even ask him to comment on Thevenin's Theory!

    Sorry, Cecil, but facts are facts. Once again, WELCOME TO THE CREEK!!
    Thanks for the GREAT pictures!

    Dale T.
    I am so busy REMAKING my projects that I don't have time to make them the FIRST time!

    Joseph (Joe?) I sprayed a base of super-blond shelac, followed by 4 coats of Min-Wax sanded w/320-600 grit, then rubbed out. And yes, it's Walnut. That and Mahogany are my favorate woods to work in.

    Beautiful furniture! I'm suffering from withdrawal seeing all of the good work everyone on the Creek does. I have to get my garage/shop back together so I can start a new project!
