Pondhockey Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Very nice. The sapwood would have introduced a possibly nice contrast. Would it also cause a structural issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the sapwood, though, and will make another one with a decent mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you did such a nice job with the grain, that I'm sure the sapwood contrast wasn't missed at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
difalkner Posted March 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Thanks! Have you tried/built one? They're very rewarding and fun to build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have not, but I lingered at Woodcraft today in a section featuring lazy suzann, and then later at a furniture shop, so you definitely got my attention! Thx again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
