Looks like "skilled" work to me... Very nice. :cool:

BTW, do you raise goats or sheep or maybe llamas or alpacas? :) :) :)

Yeah, the feed bag. Great to do glue ups on. Non-stick. I save everything, somebody might need it some day. Anybody need a few ton of used baler twine. lol

Very nice projects and beautiful work, Blackie! Congratulations on your top notch workmanship!

You can't fool me about not having skills to build furniture projects.
Just take a look at the exact fitting joints you made on the weavers and the top rim (handles)

With that skill you can make anything. All you need is time!
