My mother-in-law requested a new shelf for her desk at work. I don't think that she is expecting what she's getting. I know that she likes to show off some of the things that my wife and I do for her because it makes her co-workers jealous (she works in a lawyer's office). I figured if I was going to help make someone jealous, I may as well put some effort into it. This is a shelf made from curly ambrosia maple and walnut, dovetail joinery, with a walnut maple leaf inlayed into the top front of the shelf. I know that you can't see it in the pics, but there is an arch cut from the bottom of the "legs" as well. After doing this, I realized that with some curvacious cuts, this design would make a nice sitting bench.
critiques are welcome. I know that the photo's suck, sorry. I put in a cherry bowl in one of the pics to show some contrast.
sorry about the post size. I tried putting them as thumbnails, but I couldn't get them to come up on the pull down menu.
