    Default These things take time.

    Way back in 2009 I started work on a buffet and hutch, and was doing a WIP as well. I got the base mostly completed, and then put the project to one side as other projects grabbed my attention. Finally got around to finishing it over the Christmas holidays, even if it's 6 years later. These things take time.

    Pictures of the completed article.

    You'd have to be pleased with that.

    Hi,
    Better late than never. I hope you did not get nagged with regular six monthly reminder.

    Regards
    Hugh

    Hi Christos, you're probably right. My dear wife never puts any pressure on for anything I'm building. After nearly 30 years of marriage, we take things as they come. I doubt I'd enjoy the hobby so much if I had "deadlines" imposed by others. Happy to put my own timings on things, and work on them when I feel like it.

    Cheers,

    ajw
