Re: projects you are the most proud of
These are a set of pine bookcases that my daughter and I made, several years ago, to house part of her library. I would do a few things differently now, but we had fun making them and and they have survived a couple of moves without sustaining any damage,
We will be making some built in shelves in her basement this year to accommodate new additions to her collection.

Re: projects you are the most proud of
This was my first major project with the Shopsmith, light as a feather, great for fishing. Not as fancy as some, its a boat, not furniture.

Re: projects you are the most proud of
This isn't necessarily the project I'm most proud of. It is my most recent project, finished yesterday. My Wife wanted a small cabinet to park beside her recliner to keep her knitting supplies in so she can knit while relaxing. We came up with this cabinet. I did the wood cutting and my Wife did the carving.

This is one of my favorites. The bedside stands are made of Honduran mahogany and alder with backlit amber onyx tops. The light panels we made by using PSA type LED strips pressed onto a piece of 1/8" mirror.
