Just curious

Rick,
Walnut. Planning on using it for all the wood.
Still not sure what type of cab it will get though......

Seeing has how this is a little Shay, I would do a very open cab to show all the details. But that is the kind I like.  It almost looks like a live steamer.  Enjoying your progress it will be gorgeous!

A screw up on your part doesn't constitute an emergency on mine.

Well, it's about time. I was wondering when you finally would finish that Johnson bar.

Get a manicure.

Great work!

That wooden tool box in the background is a beauty, too.

Wonderful to see such quality modelling on this forum. It's why I log in every single day.
