Very nice project!

What a great idea.Nice job it looks good.

-- Dustygirl..Hastings,Ontario.. How much wood can 1 gal chuck if 1 gal can't cut wood?

Great use of scrap wood. I need one of these. Thanks for the idea. Nice tight miters on the pencil holder by the way.

The corners appear to be flawlessly rabbetted on my monitor…..excelllent grain flow.

This came out perfectly….now I have a use for my Zebrawood as well ! hahahaa
The finish looks great also , Tom : )
The clock and BC holder make it a truly functional piece of desktop furniture .
Added to my favorites and soon to be imitated with your permission , Sir.

-- I'm absolutely positive that I couldn't be more uncertain!

Actually Shannon, they were rabbit joints, but the stripes of the Zebrawood make them almost invisible. That’s probably what I learned the most out of this project. The next time I use Zebrawood, I’ll almost certainly use rabbit joint..

Great use of scraps and a great trick to be able to learn the joints look great.

Knock yourself out Dusty. I’m sure you’ll come up with something cool…

Thanks Tom , but this one will be hard to beat ….It’s a real beauty and right now I can’t think of any way to improve on it…..maybe I’ll make two of them …a left and a right handed version…what do you think ? LOL
The Zwood that I have has a lot more “heavy” dark striping in it so I don’t think that I could pull off the excellent grain matching as well as you have done . Have a great day , Tom and thanks again : )

-- I'm absolutely positive that I couldn't be more uncertain!

Had to come back for another look at this beauty…..maybe this year I’ll get a chance to try to imitate it : )
Happy New Year to you and yours ,Tom !

Hey thanks Dusty… Looking forward to seeing yours. I love it when old projects resurface on LJs. Sometimes I find myself just browsing through my own projects like looking at an old photo album. Lots of great memories.
