Very nice chest. That walnut has some strong figure in it. Good selection and arrangement.

Gorgeous project. Excellent dovetails. Instant family heirloom. You might want to consider brass handles like these. What’s the next project?

Beautiful! I really want to build one of these. I just hope I can do half as good as you.

Thanks everyone. Bob those handles look real nice on your chest – something for me to think about.

Looks great and pristine dovetails. This will get many, many years of years passed down through the generations.

You did a fantastic job on this. That walnut is perfect.

Very very nice. I’m always impress with hand tool work. The wood and finish look great.

Great work. I love Walnut, and that is a beautiful well executed piece. I am becoming a big fan of wipe on poly..I have used it for several projects and its easy to apply and yields a great, durable finish.
