Thanks Stew. I was having trouble trying to see it on the projects page. I guess it’s up now.

The song “Back in the Saddle Again” comes to mind. Beautiful work Mr. Angle.

Beautiful work, Thos.

I’m glad too see you made a “saddle” for the only “horse” I ever ride.

Hey Tom;

WOW, as always!

You should mount it on a wall somewhere. No, some nut would try to use it. LOL

Great workmanship and design.

Thos., Glad you are back… Very nice work. One day I’ll have to pick your brain about the finer points of leather work. You truly are a craftsman.

Sincerely,
Tom

You are a true artist Thos. Thanks for sharing.

I have been troubled recently trying to come up with a good CNC project, you have me thinking….

...maybe add a matching vanity and hand tooled mirror

I don’t know. Having been involved in a small way with toilet training some children, I have a philosophy that you shouldn’t do anything to make people afraid to use the facilities. Frankly, that looks much too nice to use, but (on the other hand) everyday objects should always be made as beautiful as possible. What to do, what to do …

Guess I’ll have to go somewhere and think it out. You’ll never guess where …

Very nice, I bet your home is amazing with all the custom work you do. These wooden seats could be anothe use for the Compucarve – monogrammed thrones perhaps?

:-) I’m starting to recoginize your projects, when I saw this on the homepage I knew without looking this was your work!

I’m with Dennis, matching vanity and mirror! Great job.

Lee, I thought it might make a good frame for Grandpa’s picture. Then if ya didn’t want to look at ‘im you could close it. LOL I’m reminded of the hill billies that moved into the new house and were admiring the “autermatic foot warsher”.

Looks good, Thos. Even humble day-to-day object deserve to have hand-made accents. The seat back on the wooden toliet set I have has a load of curly grain. If/when we remodel I’m going to take that piece of wood to another level (I’m sure it dreams of becoming a box that holds…anything else).

There is a lot of magazines in our privy, too. But just for wish-list dreaming and WW research.

I saw a guy using the whole frame for a picture of his arch enemy.
Kind of made me chuckle.
Thom, I don’t know if they would sell that well as frames but it may be worth a shot.

I had to laugh when I realized what “Throne” you were talking about. :)
Love it and think it’d be a great weekend project to adorn that plain old seat cover in our guest ‘throne’ room.
You could more than likely sell those for a premium, I know my wife would by one, or two or three.

I can’t resist relating this one, especially after all the photo frame comments. It was not uncommon in “chamber pot days” to paste an enemy’s (or a disliked friend’s?) photo in the bottom. During the Napoleonic Wars, you’ll never guess who the favorite subject was in England. L’Audacite, audacite … (and I wish I could spell French, too).

When I was a kid, “antiquing” was all the rage. My Mom decided that we needed an antiqued toilet seat, so she went ahead and did ours.
Great idea, except that the paint got soft and sticky. We had gilded butts for a month!
