I posted some shot of this thing about a week or so ago, I have made a
little progress since .The desk is in solid curly? maple [or should it be
called tiger maple] .

All one has to do is look at it and it chip away. Even with sharp joiner
blades it still chips, the solution saw every joint you can ,at least it
does not chip just burns regardless of how sharp the blade is and how
carfully the fence is adjusted.

One good thing the remainder [excluding the breadboards on the fall ] is
all in Walnut.....mjh


========Beautiful work, Mike, and finish will just really set off the
wood. I have one minor comment to make about the desk, though. I don't
think I'd have left the ends square on the desk supports. Using the desk
could result in damage to one's legs!

Well #1 the lopers are traditional ,#2 In a sitting position they
are above leg height, #3 when sitting the lopers are outside the leg area .

Next the customer has now decided the remainder will be in guess what
..........yea you guessed it maple...regards mjh
