Fantastic!!! Can't wait to see it after you apply the finish. Looking at that beautiful grain, I can see why you wouldn't want to give it the 'Greenie' color scheme.

Importing woods, and other items is necessary. It strengthens our economy along with economies in the rest of the world, but only when you have exchange of goods, knot when the main export from the US is our cash. BTW, what kind of New Zealand wood is that?:)

I agree... Importing raw materials to be made into stuff by American workers is a whole different thing.
Now if we would just start developing more tree farms here too... A well managed wood lot can be much more profitable long term than the same acreage of grain. Sadly American agriculture is so caught up in the corn to beef to clogged arteries cycle that it will probably never see it. Oh well, its good for the medical profession. :)

I am trying to upload the plans to the site but not sure it will work. The files are too big to get both sides on here. If you need the plans please send me you email address to attach it to so I can get them to you
Thanks
