From Frank Lane
Mac Dressler's Gun Cabinet
A Larry Morse sideboard from plans in Wood Magazine. Nice photography to go with the fine woodworking!
"I used quarter-sawn red oak. I got it in rough form from Liberty Hardwoods. The plans were great. The only change I made was to make the top 1 inch thick, rather than ¾. I used Danish Oil finish, covered with polyurethane. I worked on this about 6 months, total, with a about a 2-month break in the middle."

The cherry and maple table is also from a Woodsmith plan. (Center) (Where's Waldo?)

Bill Johnston created the bookcase and matching bench for his brand new grandson from sketches created by his son-in-law and around baskets chosen by his daughter. The cushion was designed and completed by the baby's aunt. A team effort all around! The baskets can be used for baby items early on and later to store toddler toys.
Bill's biggest challenge was finishing the oak to match a baby bed that the parents had already purchased made of an unknown oriental wood that had an appearance of stained oak.
