The finish looks really nice, too.

Great work, John.

One note about proper tagging of the challenge entry. Go to edit project screen and type in ‘challenge01’ under Project Tags. There is no need to use challenge01 in the title. Tag is important. Once done your project must be listed on this projects by tag page. That will be the page listing all of the valid entries.

I will try to make this clearer in the announcement ;)

Beautiful John. You dove right in and produced a wonderful piece. Congrats to you. Am looking forward to seeing what you do to the other tables.

Thanks everyone. I had some time today so I started a small one out of some teak scraps I had laying around. It will be about 12inches tall. I may finish it tomorrow.

Have fun all and work safe.

-- JohnShackleford,North Carolina

That’s some nice reclaimed pine. Good job!

Looks like Bill and I are back at the starting line.
