Pictuers of answer
Hi gang. thank you for playing.the reason I posted this , is because, it bluw me away, that we could get any useabale wood out of this bush. I have lived in the mojove deseart for 50 years. and we have these bush's every where. as alot of desearts do. we call them grease wood bush's. they fall apart pretty easy. when you wont them too. but I would have never guessed my self that they was so pretty inside. it brock my heart to have to cut one out of my yard. when ever I have to cut trees or bushs out I ask my hubby to make these petastales out of them for me, for my tamari balls. any way thanks for playing.this is what they look like. the wood that you have mentioned, sounds pretty too. now I would like to see some of that if you have any pictuer. Teresa I never heard of Tasmanian Blackwood. that really sounds nice. your friend Evie.

by meflickGlad you got it, got it set up and working Tony. Fortunately I have a DH who is much more technical on builds like that so I let him put it together for me. I knew he would get it built much faster and with much less frustration then I could have.
I never tried to use the LaserGRBl....-

Reply to Old Tool - Rebornby tgiro01Thanks - To make the box joints I used a 1/2" straight bit and my Incra jig. I used the little right angle sled that comes with the Incra fence, but now that I have the miter slot, I'll be getting or building a good coping sled....

by tgiro01I cleaned some space on my workbench to set this thing up and then had to clean some more space. I read about the 54X45CM size, but I guess I wasn't really thinking about how big it is. I put an 18 inch ruler in for scale in the "built" picture.
TBH - I wanted to get it together...-
