    Some nice QSWO

    Making a hall seat in greene and green style. Design inspiration from the NYW hall seat. but I am modifying it and making it in G&G style. Here is a close up of the QSWO for the lower seat back during a dry fit. I will post more when it is done.

    Nice QSWO Keith. I think I would try switching the center board and the left board.
    Please help support the Creek.

    Well here is what the QSWO became. This is a 'hall tree' or hall seat as showcased on NYW. I made some changes as the one in the show seemed too plain form me. I put a slight cloud lift on the top and added some ebony embellishments. A few coats of danish oil and it is all ready.

    Keith,

    Beautiful wood and a beautiful piece of furniture. I'm sure that piece of furniture will be admired for many, many years.
