A Hutch for my Mom
      02/19/04 07:30 PM Attachment

Here is a picture of the hutch i mentioned in a earlier post about a video cabinet i made for my mom. It took about 3 weeks to make, that is with what little bit of time i have after work in the evening. She really like its. Its made from birch and pine. Again i made all my own trim and raised panel doors. It was under 100.00 to build including hardware. No plans, i just winged it with the size she told me she wanted.

Larry, I envy both you and your mom. Her for having you and you for your craftsmanship. As our house will not be a totally finished turnkey deal, I will be trying to do some craftsman like "stuff" myself in the finish carpentry and built-ins. If I knew what you obviously know, I could throw away what I know about woodworking and be way ahead.

Larry, You may have heard the phrase, "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." That is sort of how I view furniture making and fine woodworking. How'd dey do dat? Magic!

I may never be a high priest of fine woodworking but aspire to be an advanced acolyte.
