True, but where is the treadmill?  That's what I want to know.

Kevin...I want a whole set. Cost is no object.  Grin


Audio rack step 3:

Cut up wood into shapes that fit together and could hole audio gear...



Got everything roughed together and seems like it will all play nice.

Just need my other 2 sets of isolation cones to show up and I am set to finish sand, assemble and then try and figure out what kind of finish I want to go with.

Right now, clear lacquer or tung oil are the front runners.

So after assembling the first level and finish sanding it, I have decided that I want to build 2 more identical units...then I want to use 2 for the base and have the third bridging those 2.
*sigh*...now I just have to find 2 more shelves.

Copy wright issues... Lego enforces it even on the little guy. Its for a friends birthday. He and his wife have a business selling Lego stuff. So if they were to sell these I think there would be trouble.

I was going to put his initials on the posts but I couldn't get the lettering to look right Sad

Just 1 inch dados.

1/2 inch holes were drilled at the shelves on the sides of the legs. The joints were glued and then a 2 1/4 inch cabinet screw run into each hole. The holes were then filled with 1/2 inch black walnut dowels, cut flush and sanded smooth. It looks like it was pinned together.

I will post up more pics this weekend. I decided to do the 3 identical units/bridge thing but I couldn't find another piece of 15 1/2 inch wide zebrawood so I had to order 2 8 inch wide pieces from Kansas City. I pick them up on Friday and then to the shop to biscuit join them, glue and clamp.

Also Friday night, I am going to shoot 2 coats of black lacquer on a pair of speakers I am refinishing.

Sunday, 2 more coats of lacquer on the speakers and then run the shelf stock through the planer, cut to size and cut the remaining dados in the other 8 legs.
Assemble, finish sand, let all the glue dry.

Sometime next week after work, I will finish sand, wipe clean and then start layering on the gloss tung oil.

Every time someone tells me that you can't make beautiful furniture from pine going forward, after I punch them in the dick, I will show them this picture.

Absolutely stunning work Karl.  bow down
