    Very nice.

    That's beautiful wood. Nicely done.
    How did you find the crotch pieces to work with tools?

    Nice work.
    I like the design. I assume it was to fit specific equipment.

    Good grain and figure in the timber. Is it really that yellow?

    My guess is fluro lighting.

    Nice work. Looking forward to seeing photos with the unit in place.
