I take it that you don't subscribe to "alt.binaries.pictures.woodworking"
or "alt.binaries.pictures.furniture".

I do not.

If I had to choose a piece of furniture made by either Norm or Mike it
would be Mr. Hide's for sure.

It's all a matter of personal preference. The computer desk is not my
cup of tea. I wouldn't own it. But that has nothing to do with whether
the workmanship is acceptable or the choice of finish. However, saying
it's a piece of crap and not a good example of woodworking for the
world to see just because it isn't my taste would be wrong.

I didn't see anything in either the joinery or the finish that would
tip the balance.

And I still haven't found out what this mystical wreck approved finish
is. I see he used lacquer on the wall. That's not often a practical
choice for a variety of reasons. I hope that's not it.
