Beautiful work. I like the compass rose!

That's some beautiful work Mike,The curly maple is outstanding. Did you feel the need to surface your bench flat to gain a advantage over hand planing the maple?.Oh I know how tricky curly wood can be.
Love that early 19th century sea captains chest look! As for your son, the no door thing could mean they are setting up some sort religious order.
DO NOT LEAVE. DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT.
Absolutely gorgeous work, again.
Hi Mike
Firstly, great chest. You have an eye for proportions and balance.
Secondly, think 'black coffee'.
Thirdly, use Photobucket - that makes it simple to post multiple images (as I do).

Mike:
# 1: Please don't leave.
#2: very nice box and overall finished product. We appreciate the time you spent on showing us the process.
Thanks again--

Just as an FYI, many of us (if not all) can only see inline photos on mobile devices; thumbnails don't appear in the "mobile default" view. I'd explain how Manage Attachments window settings could keep photos from appearing as thumbnails, but I really can't suss out how it works. Maybe making them "Inline" (the button at the bottom right of the window) does it, but I haven't gotten around to running test posts to find out. My bad...
Another FYI: photos on Photobucket's site are virtually unviewable on mobile devices because swaths of the top and bottom of the image are hidden by photobucket site stuff.
I know, I know, first world problems!
Mike,
Beautiful job, and I agree, the carving does add a lot, wish I could carve, but have things that are more basic to learn first.

I haven't had any trouble viewing photo bucket pictures on iPhone/pad/ect.

Mike,
Fabulous work as always. Will look forward to any future posts you decide to send our way!

I can see them as well, and i can enlarge them by clicking on them.

Hi Ken, I'm not going anywhere. I was being childish and petulant, which I have to confess, has been known to happen when I'm frustrated with technology issues. I very much appreciate the advice you, Brian and Derek offered about Photobucket. Brian has graciously suggested this to me in the past and I have tried without success. I will try again.
Take care of yourself friend. Being on the wagon is not so bad, especially considering you discovered a new spot for authentic fish tacos just outside your front door!
Best, Mike
