This is nice to see; the ‘plywood project’ in full development!

Indeed some very nice maple, reminds me of sable tigers (some very impressive animals). Did you get tear out on lower pitches since the smoother is quite high?

So how far along the ‘project timeline’ are you now? And also, do you have some ideas on the finish (or does your client have some special wishes)?

Thanks for the ‘basement action pics’.

Had never thought about figured maple as fish, but I can totally see why you think of it that way.

It’s nice to see the work coming along and knowing that you’re doing it by hand is inspiring. The maple is beautiful and the warmth of the cherry is a nice accent.

If there is a single ‘advertisement’ for a handtool-only approach to woodworking it is the photos of shops where it occurs. So warm; so inviting.

You guys sure have better wood in Ontario. That figured maple is amazing!
