wow…this is amazing!!!!!!!!!!

-- Matt, Napa, CA...fun is beautiful...just trying to have some fun...

Very nice bent lamination. It is difficult to do nice work with light woods. They show every flaw.

Well Done!!!!!!

Also, I would be interested in seeing some of the molds. I do bent laminations once in a while and would like to see your technique. You can send me an email if you like.

Thanks, John

Justin, welcome to LJ. This table is fabulous. I second Carl’s request. I’d love to see the molds used to do this.

beautiful table. Id love to see the molds

That is absolutely awesome. My hat is off to you Justin. Sometimes I wish my semester projects had been with wood instead of electrons. I just had not gotten bitten by the bug at that time.

Keep up the great work. With talent like that, you will be going places.
