    Just lookn' for a button to push...

    I'm trying to work on getting some pictures on my SBC site right now. I'm just testing to see if the link will work and if I now have a "www" button under my name. Don't mind me...

    Hey Chris,

    Sorry the pictures aren't better of that curly cherry piece. This was before I had a digital camera. I don't own the piece or I would try and get some better pics. The real story is that where I get my lumber they don't sort it out for figure. So this was in the regular stack for $3.50 a bdf. Gotta' love a good deal.

    This page represents my better projects since 1998. Pre-1998 isn't worth the bandwidth.

    Jason,

    Is the changing table something you built from plan or something you designed yourself? I am interested in possibly doing something similar in the future.

    Jason! Whew! That stuff is B E Utiful! Very, very nice. I *might* get about halfway there in another 10 or 15 years...If I'm lucky! You've covered many, many detailed aspects of WW with your pieces. Truly impressive! My hat's off to you.
    Cheers,

    Wendell, my cousin gave me some basic dimensions that she needed and I came up with rest. It's not the most stunning design by any means, but it does the trick. I would send you the CAD file that I drew up, but I can't seem to find it. Sorry.

    Jason

    Jason, I hope someday that I can make beautiful pieces like that. Did you use a shaper to make the feet on the 7 drawer chest and some of the other pieces that you made?

    David, I cut the coves on the table saw and smoothed out the shape with a hand plane and a ton of sand paper. It's a lot of work but very rewarding in the end. Jason

    Wow! That's really great work and in styles I really appreciate. Thanks for posting. The photgraphy is very nice, too.
