Mark,
I posted a week or so about the Lee Valley Catalog and the designer/builder of the Woodworking.org tsunami hope chest project. the project was awesome and they posted the whole process of building the hope chest on the website. Dave @ Australian wood art is a great wood worker and very creative with his designs and speed at which he can visualize and complete a project. The australian woods he uses are also very beautiful. Even wood hinges on all his projects. Wow.
Great post.

Glad you like it Mark and thanks for the mention . It's interesting to see you linked to the image of that spice cabinet . That was the first time I'd used the timber hinges and after that , there was no turning back . Metal hinges seem so out of place now .

Cheers,
Dave

You should post the Lee Valley Piece!
