Greetings All...

This was commisioned by the Mrs. as a wedding present for a freind of
ours...I will be taking it to Springfeild MO to live in the next day or so,
I was was cutting the deadline close...

Anyways, its all SYP about 20" wide 20" deep and 40" long, The lid was so
heavy I installed those spring loaded lifters to help hold it up...these
are some smaller photos so everyone should be able to see them..

Questions and comments welcome

DCH

Very nice looking. I bet that top is HEAVY. Do the spring-loaded
lifters work well for you?

I hope that SYP, particularly on the top, is very well seasoned--those
are pretty wide boards.

I, too, would like to hear your finish plans. I think it would look
good with milk paint or a dark shellac.

I like your treatment of the legs. By joining them in a bevel, it
gives the impression of 4x4's at the corner, shouting "I'm stout!".
