I'd really like to build a canoe, but not much reason for one here anymore.
I'd actually just like to finish the dining room table I've got started at this point.

I'd like to build a Maloof style rocker. I know a fellow who has built 3, and man are those thing comfortable!

I would like to build a complete bedroom set. I guess I get to start with the baby bed for my daughter.

I would love to build a piece of fine furniture using only hand tools and period finishes (of the lead free type of course...)
Just to feel how it was done and gain a further appreciation for the tooling and methods these folks employed to create some of the masterpieces we see still around today.

Something I have always wanted to build is a really nice Easel. Just seems I have never gotten around to it. I was given a round to it once so I could get around to it but I never got around to it so maybe one day I will get another round to it so I can get around to it.
I dream a lot. I do more painting when I'm not painting. It's in the subconscious.

A complete arts & crafts living room set - Morris chair, Stickley settle, coffee and end tables. On my list, just can't convince Jan that it's a good idea.

A much more refined bed. I've built several over the years, and they work, but I want to build a 'nice' bed for the LOML

A Hal Taylor rocking chair. I popped for the plans and instructional DVD last xmas. Maybe this year I will buy the wood (approximately $750 for suitable black walnut).
