Does anybody have any idea, aid, or direction on finding information on
Russian woodworking designs? I am going to be an uncle soon (via
adoption) and would like to build something of Russian hertiage like
toybox, jewerly box or anything of that nature. Thanks for all your
help in advance!


Why Russian? Take something of _your_ design.

"V Tulu so svoim samovarom ne ezdyat." Sums it up. One does not take their
own samovar to Tula - where the finest were made. Equivalent of coal and
Newcastle.
