    Patrick,
    Very nice indeed! I am not usually one to say anything all that nice about red oak (here in Missouri red oak furniture is EVERYWHERE). But that is a very nice project. Taking a "mistake" and making it a design enhancement is a true skill, honestly it is something some people cannot do. Problem solving like that is necessary to keep the good spirits on your side in the shop.
    As Walt says, there is alot of pride to be had walking through a home and putting your hands on things you have made. The Arts n Crafts movement was functionality and utilitarian at it's best. My goal is to live in a home one day I can say I have built everything inside from the doors, trim etc to the furniture...... "some day".
    For a "newbie" you have every reason to be proud of your work. Trust me on this one, that some of the above posters do some awesome work (Jason Tunistra's web site makes me drool)... receiving compliments from seasoned skilled woodworkers is reason to be proud.

    Cheers,
    Greg
