Is that hard wood or soft wood? Asking for a friend.

there was no Netflix and no TNCR back then, you had to find something to do somehow.

Was there even electricity?

Actually, now that I look at that picture, I realize I should have done a better job of matching the grain on some of the pieces.

For example the grain of the rail on the bottom of the upper door on the left and the top of the upper rail of the large door on the right don't quite match. I could have chosen a better piece of plywood for the field of the door on the upper left as well...

That's a nice piece, George. Very nice. Most people don't have a clue just how much time and effort it takes to build something like thzt.

George is kind of my hero. l337 in the ways of computers, digital hoarding, carpentry, piano, and (cheap) scotch.

I first noticed there's nothing next to the chest. Boris just jumped up four feet in the air to get there. Yikes!

Looks good, I’ll take one! Can I get it in walnut?

Yeah, looks worse than a bucket full of assholes (old construction term for shoddy work). Not. You do nice work. Ditch the condo and find a place where you could have a shop.

The missus will understand...

That picture is from the dining room of our house in 2003. In the condo, it's positioned differently. It's possible to leap up there from the dining room table, but that's a jump too - distance wise, it's about 2 feet, and then up.
