Lowboy in figured cherry

BEAUTIFUL JOB!!!! Be proud!!!

-- Only the Shadow knows....................

People can say what ever they want to about Norm not being a real craftsman. I think he is the best. I know he has a lot of tools and I think those people are jealous of him. He’s been around for many years working his craft and has become one of the best. Coping any of his work and it turning out as good as his is a great accomplish- ment. You done good my friend.

By the way…Was his plan easy to follow. And how detailed is the video ? (If you got the video too).
Norm can turn one of those out in half an hour. LOL Just kidding.

Thanks guys!! jjohn, the thing I do when I start a New Yankee project is to study the video. I watched this video, and the highboy video so many times, my girlfriend could’ve probably built one!!! I also learned to look in the background to see what Norm has cooking around the shop. He often shows you different things in frame, and if you pay attention (or record them off the tv, like I do) you can learn a lot!! The Plan was perfect, and very detailed. I did find an error in the Highboy plan with the amount of lumber called out for the upper straight moldings. The specified amount would only fit one side, with some overlap for the miters. I wish I would’ve had carving tools to carve the fan in the middle drawer. I was working part time then, in a very bad time. This piece made me feel good about myself again!!

Matt,

You should admire it. That is a beautiful piece.

Thanks for the post.

again a great project, very well done .

Thanks, guys!!

Magnifique, Monsieiur! Fantastic job, incredible wood, brilliant finish. What’s not to love???

Matt,

Another great piece. Did I read correctly that you ordered the legs? You’ve certainly got the skills to make them yourself. Give it a try. Email me if you run into stumbling blocks along the way. I’ll do my best to help you out.

Great wood selection. Nicely done.

An “A+” for the student that paid the most attention in class. I really like the dingle balls man.

Wow, you really are a superd woodworker. The work done on this “Norm” project is simply fantastic. I’m building another lowboy now, as well as the highboy. I hope mine turns out this well.
