Most attractive furniture in traditional mode using real wood.

Very nice. Interesting top on the bedside table. Is it hinged to fold out?
Excellent work on these Bill. (I was a professional cabinet maker for 20+ yrs.)
You do excellent work in photography and wood, Bill!
Very nice-looking furniture.

Tim, I appreciate the comment. The space you see under the top is velcro. That one piece of wood is between 25 and 30 pounds. Even without the velcro the top barley moves, but I was afraid somebody might toss and turn in their sleep. I had to position the camera just right to be able to see the space. The top of the dresser just sits there.
An aside. When I moved into this house 15 years ago I built shop cabinets out of plywood we had used in the POD. Not having any extra cash I "temporarily" used Velcro to keep the doors closed. I figured when the Velcro wears out or gets clogged with saw dust I'd get some magnetic ones. And, when that time comes I will do it.

Beautiful work. I bought my last bedroom suite from an Amish store and it is built to last.

Thanks Jerry. I figure the older I get the less I have to worry about longevity. But I do hope what I build will last at least until I'm six feet under.
