    Awesome Desk!!! Not sure if I can see much of it in the other picture.
    Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "...Holy Cow....what a ride!"

    [quote=edward alexander;1082066]Craig I cut the coves on the table saw,I've used those cove cross pieces on I guess a half dozen pieces-the piece I'm working on now will have them(a walnut desk) as to how I do it, I put a fence at 45 degree to the blade on the saw table and take a smidgen of a cut (about 1/32") on one side of the board I'm cutting the cove on turn the board over and take the same cut off that side
    raise the blade a smidgen and repeat,and repeat until it's done.oh a smidgen is a measurement we use down here in Texas.


    Thanks for the info, wow must take a quite a few passes to do that and time.I havent tried that technique but I would like to.
