GOSSIP BENCH

Very nice bench. Interesting combination with the jewelry holder. What was the inspiration?

Well I’ll have to make one since this is where the wife would be. Beautiful piece, great craftsmanship!!

Very nice piece, very creative. Did you do the turnings yourself, or were they purchased for the project? I really like the design.

I love the storage everywhere… now for a comfy cushion to sit on during those long conversations .. :)

the heart is a wonderful addition to this piece.

I like it!
It’s a good mix of lathe and conventional tools in action on one piece.
I’m not a big fan of oak due to the grain restrictions during finishing but you did an excellent job of matching your up.

Is there a plan?

Nice job.

Really neat idea, Ray. No, Deb, for you girls we want no padding. If the seat is really rough you won’t spend so much time on the telephone.

Hi Ray,

You posted this before I came on board but I am glad it surfaced on my list. Very nice. It has a nice design and the construction looks to be well executed. I would have liked to see more pictures though.

thanks for the post.
