Whille the sawdust is not on the floor I did want to submit my recently
finished blanket chest. I have six grandchildren and this is the first of
six blanket chests.
It is based on a plan from FWW Mar/Apr 98 and made from Walnut and Beech.
The Beech came from Rockler and was described as "flame curly" and if you
look at the pic in APBW you will see the figure. The finish is GF two step
with Seal-A-Cell and Arm-R-Seal. The inside is done is Shellac.This is my
third woodworking project since getting back into the hobby after about 30
years.

Here's a thread for those who just want to talk about their most recent
woodworking project. There's only two guidelines: It must be a
woodworking project and recent means the saw dust is still fresh.

My recent project is benchwork for my model railroad. The basic frame
went
together quickly, but the legs are taking some time. Nothing really
special about thier construction, it's just two 1x2s glued together for
stability and cut/sanded/trimmed smooth.
