    Probably use quartersawn pine.

    Having made a box that only a mother would be proud of (luckily it was for my Mum), I might have a go at another.

    As this is the year I get married to Domino, plans are ambitious:

    A bedroom suite, including headboard, dresser, vanity, and two bedside tables

    A jewerly armoire for my stepdaughter

    A large storage cabinet for my aunt's new condo

    A hall table for our foyer

    Get the shed organized (again)

    Wonder how many I'll actually get done?
    Cheers,

    Bob

    A redgum entertainment unit using mostly re-sawn recycled Redgum.

    Some shop-made hand planes and mallets.

    Get around to completing my Vacuum Press so I can get into some serious veneering....cool

    Lignum,

    There's some impressive Macassar ebony at Mathews, some good widths and depths. Good solid boards. Only $85,500 a cube.

    First-up is a very well furnished, double storey dolls-house for my GD. She's not yet three years of age, but EVERYTHING must be in place, includiing a toilet bowl - " Where does ?? do poo Pa?", "Where is the laundry Pa?".

    Major project is to gain approval for a new TS from SWMBO, from the WWW show in March. After that, it's all easy!
    I have 4 figured Myrtle serving platters to make for my Ma & sisters, which must be finished by March.
    I spoke just last night to a bloke that will be milling some 2" blackwood boards in the new year for me, ready for SM's Rocker (2 yrs away, that!). I might make 2 and sell one.
    Nesting tables for MIL and 'er indoors
    Roll-away beds for under the nippers beds. These will have big dovetails, so must start practicing.
    I might get hold of some Jarrah and domino up a big square outdoor table and benches. The Indonesian stuff is an insult to the beautiful illegally logged rainforest Kwila. DAMHIK :mad:
    I think by that time it will be Chrissy again.

    .....so go4it people!

    2007 Should be huge - I hope.

    First of all finish this pool that has consumed 2006

    Then would very much like to get a large drum sander and domino - depends upon how much overtime i do early next year Have to balance that with demands and enjoying the family.

    Projects planned are a dressing table for SWMBO and a large dinning table - both made from redgum burl slabs i got some time back whilst out west and some feature stuff in the dressing table made from the myrtle I bought recently.

    All good - except the overtime - have to finance the toys somehow.
    Cheers
