    Thumbs up

    Gary, welcome to the Creek! The water's fine so wade right in---the bullfrogs and tadpoles don't nibble on your toes too badly.

    That sideboard is just beautiful!! The curl showing in the doors, the rails and stiles, and that back piece really shows off in your picture. What did you finish this with?
