question is...what's next? What did you make this out of...pine? how much do you think you have in material? Another cool design!:eek:

Thats cool for you! You either need a connection like that, or have a friend who has a sawmill:D and another friend who owns a kiln:D and another friend who owns 600 acres of woodlands and will let you cut one tree at a time of whatever you want:D The problem is you wind up with more wood then you will ever use!:(

How are you creating your vcarved (looks like leaf) pattern? I like the way your center curves. I could see how you "might could" add a slanted shelf below for like a magazine rack. I'm going to have to study this picture to see if i can "immitate" your design, because as they say "immitation is the sincerest form of flattery"...another nice one dan
