Beginnings

[Keith Christopher]

Well I began working on my daughters bed based upon Ryan Singers bed. I am making mine from Lyptus and I mostly completed the foot board and began cutting the dovetails on the headboard. I am going to use thru tenon for the bed frame pieces with a small wedge to help with racking.
