I plan to. I'm building an office "suite" - credenza, desk and side computer
table all in G&G style out of walnut I bought from a friend in CA. Some
really beautiful figure to it. Kind of a different and darker look for this
furniture, but the wood has some real color and character to it that looks
beautiful.

I experimented with doing the details like the plugs and breadboard end
splines, out of a lighter colored wood, but ended up doing them with ebony.
They're much more subtle against a dark walnut but still look really nice.

I'll be at this for a few more months just getting in weekend time on the
project (when I'm not selling nuisance insurance products to an unsuspecting
public), but I'll get some pics up when I get to that point.

Read this book last spring and contacted Darrell via email through his

I finally met him over the summer and took his weekend G&G details class.
Really nice guy and really into the G&G look. Got a chance to visit him in
his shop and he was very helpful in letting me learn how he makes his G&G
Aurora pedastel desk which I'm currently building out of claro walnut.
Can't say enough nice things about him.

Post some pics at ABPW when you're done, okay? Walnut, eh? Sounds very
promising.
