      Beautiful piece!
      Nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done. Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're better than that! -Rocky Balboa-

        One more thing that may have been of interest concerning this cabinet. The door for it was a pain in the butt! I used space balls, and left the recommended 1/8" for each side. I have used space balls in the past, but always left about 3/16". I would recommend the 3/16" plan. With the 1/8" I had to clamp hard enough that the stub tenons cut from my router set didn't seat properly, and it didn't turn out flat.

        So I had to cut the door apart, and try again. I ended up building the door without the router bits, with extra deep tenons to ensure that it would stay aligned properly, which it did. I also found that doing it this way really didn't take any longer than setup of the router bit set, which I found surprising.

        Just thought I'd share that bit of screw up.

          Don't know how I missed the original post on this, but wow!! Love the colors you achieved in the leaves, and the design is great - small footprint, but has everything. Marketing the plans?

                Hey Bill, I'm not marketing plans, but I did a 3D model, and I have kept the templates, if you are interested in any of those things, PM me, and I'll send the computer stuff along.
