Very nice execution of the design as usual Dan. I have to agree with Wayne. I’ve enjoyed each piece as well.

Dan your work is definitely consistent – consistently good that is. I like this one. I’m still trying to get the hang of using Sketchup – maybe one of these days :-)).

Dan,

I really like the look of this. As others have said, you have a definite gift for design. In other words, the things you design just look “right;” properly proportioned and pleasing to the eye.

Dan,
I remember you posting the SketchUp work on this. It came out just as good as I expected. You do such fine work that there was never any doubt of the outcome.

Very nice, Dan.

Funny thing is even though I’m pretty much a software junkie, I’ve played with sketchup a few times and always end up losing patience with trying to figure it out.

Dan,

Thank you for the reference to sketchup. I have downloaded it and will give it a try.
