I love the arch crown. How did you do that? Did you mill it form one pieces and use a different router bits? Great work.

Your woodworking style is distinctive. I can identify it as yours as soon as I see it. And I like what I see.

You couldn’t have made this any bigger and located it where you did. It looks a little shoehorned into its location.

I’m curious about how you made the crown molding as well. All-in-all, a very well made project. Congrat’s!

PS: Any possibility of using a first name in your signature, it’s a little awkward to refer to you as dewoodwork??

Thanks for the comments folks. Seems like a great group here. I’ll address your questions as best as I can.

”I love the arch crown. How did you do that?” I borrowed the technique from a arch top amore project in a old issue of woodsmith magazine. It’s all about templates. The molding is two 3/4” pieces stacked. The top profile of the rail is created first and a scribe jig is used to create the step down sequence of moldings.

”You couldn’t have made this any bigger and located it where you did. It looks a little shoehorned into its location.” Yes I agree. It was all about accommodating my wife’s colossal DVD collection. She wanted a floor to ceiling bookshelf but I had other plans.

”PS: Any possibility of using a first name in your signature, it’s a little awkward to refer to you as dewoodwork??” My name is Dewayne and it is included in my signature. Am I missing something?

Hi Dewayne,

Very good workmanship! The idea of several “firsts” incorporated into a single project, shows your willingness to “push the envelope”

That’s the way to learn.
