Newel post before glue-up and stain

a fireplace mantle's face I wanted to show you some close detail, how it looks over-all (wide shot) and turn the camera sideways so you can get a sense of it's profile when it's installed vertically (mantle's face). It will be capped with a bull-nosed board on it's top. I'll post a shot of the whole fireplace wall after it's installed and painted.

creating a fireplace mantle's face. The thicker (deeper) the panels, the richer the look.

We are about to build a L-shaped desk for a client that is motorized to rise (via a control panel) up to a drafting table's height (for use while standing). I finally assembled all the pieces and performed a test. I'll post more as it is built.

A client brought a sitting height stool (with built-in steps) that her grandfather purchased from a maker in Paris, Wisconsin almost a hundred years ago. It was nearly black, the bottom step broken and an angled stretcher (to keep it square) needed to be replaced. We stripped it, repaired everything and finished with two, light coats of urethane. Half of the seat, folds back on itself to create a three stepped stool. Liked it so much that I think I'll make one like it for our kitchen.
