Leon's Cabinets - Plus
I still can't reply on Leon's thread. ... error message.
Karl wrote: Beautifully done, as usual. Gonna have to invent some new adjectives to describe your sterling work, Bubba. Leonized. Leonated. Leonism. Leonogical (Leonogically). Bubbalated: When applicable, a reference to steam bending wood, via bubbled water. I finished the face frames for my walnut bathroom corner cabinets. They are ready to install. I was on a roll, had the walnut already pulled out (from the bath cabinet project), so I decided to cut the face frames for the entertainment center and did the fluting work. Spent 4 hours doing that, when I realize the entertainment center is made of cherry. Arrgh! What's the adjective(s) for that mental lapse? Great job, Leon. Sonny |

Swingman can show an example of a Hope Chest that he built for his daughter. Great piece! What's the adjective(s) for that mental lapse? Great job, Leon. Sonny Thank you |

Gonna have to invent some new adjectives to describe your sterling work, Bubba. Leonized. Leonated. Leonism. Leonogical (Leonogically). Ahhhh..., yes, hmmmmm..., Ok, how about a historical reference? Leonardo de Bubba!! Bubbalated: When applicable, a reference to steam bending wood, via bubbled water. I finished the face frames for my walnut bathroom corner cabinets. They are ready to install. I was on a roll, had the walnut already pulled out (from the bath cabinet project), so I decided to cut the face frames for the entertainment center and did the fluting work. Spent 4 hours doing that, when I realize the entertainment center is made of cherry. Arrgh! What's the adjective(s) for that mental lapse? Walnutted, noun, wallnutting, adverb, Applying walnut to EVERYTHING! Whether it moves or not. But as Leon pointed out, walnut can go well with cherry. Remember the old craftsman maxim, it ain't a defect, it is a FEATURE! Also, you always have a good back story for the feature. Something like this; Well, I just happened to have some real pretty walnut in the garage and thought it would look nice on the entertainment center. And it does! It contrasts nicely with the cherry. Enjoy it while you can because the cherry will darken with age and they will become much more similar after awhile. Such is the nature of wood and craftsmanship. Remember the necessary qualities to be a craftsman. Tools, skills, quality materials, lots of jigs and good story telling ability. (I am being incredibly diplomatic on that last item.) |

Did you sign your new cabinets? Leonardo de Cabinetman & Bubba? : ) |
