Excellent job!

Did you use splines in the curved sections?

Is the molding bent, laminated or machined?

Thanks Les. I have learned a lot from your blog and am trying new things as they come along. My boss told me the other day that he wants to clone me 5 times then he would need no one else in the shop. Made me feel pretty good.

Again thanks for all the good comments.
