    It looks beautiful and I like the jumbo DT's. But fig.1 looks like there is a bow in the top. Is that my imagination??

    Regards,

    I'd say what your seeing is the curved front edge that appears as a bow due to to camera angle.

    Very nice work there wattycoo. Very nice indeed.

    Optical illusion i think. Looks like the top has a curved front making it appear like a bow in the first pic.

    Great job Ross. The recipients will be stoked i'm sure.

    (Stupid computer. Had 5 attempts till my post finally worked then pipped at the post by CMB.)

    Yes Rob, just my average photography skills plus a wide angle lens. The top is flat but the front edge is curved to expose the right hand corner of the drawer carcass, Ross

    Looks great. The curved front makes all the difference.

    It is really beautiful. I like the mitre-dovetail joints.
