Here's a little frame I made after Christmas. The pinned joints at the corners were inspired by some Greene & Greene joinery I saw on the FWW site.

Nice. Love the 1/4 sawn.

Are the pegs ebony?

Rosewood, but really dark. I have a couple of old guitar fingerboards I save for pegs and such. They were seconds from the Gibson Guitar factory in Kalamazoo. I've had them 25 years and they are hard as stone!

Nice job, Rob. The frames look really good with the application.

Looks like it was a nice little stress free project. Once I get done with the Morris Chair I will look forward to some of the same.

Nice.

I think it would have been nicer with the boards just a little more narrow. the Tile is beautiful.
