    Take a gander at this guy's furniture. Beautiful work, but wow is it ever pricey.

      He wants $1475-$1775 for a Windsor Chair.

      You could probably get an actual Windsor for about that if you were willing to buy slightly used.

      I was only joking

        There's a clearance sale if you like redheads.

          It's the little details of subtly curved legs, etc that I never mastered. This guy, obviously does nice work.

          Years ago, I built this "chair side table." The picture is walnut, but I used cherry. It's one of my favorites - all the drawers are dovetailed, and there are dust panels between the drawers.

          About 20 years ago, I was told it was worth about $1200.

          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

            It would take several hours to make something like that.
