well, the fun is almost over.:( i put the last coat of varnish on it today. all that's left now is to put the doors on, put the knobs on the doors, give it a good hit with pledge, move it out to the family area for some nice last pics before my friend picks it up. :thumb: then it's on to the coffee table! :)
 
well dano i havnt been much for mahogany and your Brazilian cherry which i think is a relative of mahogany has convinced me to look at it as possible choice for a future project.. well done and very purty grain in your table..:thumb::thumb:
 
another project completed!:D:thumb: my friend came over today and picked it up. he was very happy with it, and i was happy with his check...:rofl::rofl::rofl:
(the candle holders are his too, they are from the tutorial. my sister liked them so much, she bought a set of the good ones today.)
