G'day all
I normally don't dabble in furniture making (I prefer turning) but when my oldest daughter ( the one with the big belly:p) came out to the shed with some plans she found on the internet and said "I really, really, really want you to make this for me how could I possibly say no. And I reckoned the challenge would be interesting. I did have to get some turning work into it though:D hence the 22 spindles that took about 10 hours to make. Most of the timber I used was what I had laying around, hence the putty everywhere but she said she wanted it painted white so I didn't bother wasting money on dressed timber for something that will be painted. I think SWMBO is more impressed than daughter.
Cheers
