    Very nice. I like the color contrast. The pulls are a nice touch.

    Nice work, the question is are they finger joints or box joints?

    Very nice!

    I'm just finishing up restoration of a Gerstner #052. Your construction details look very similar, I presume that is where some of the inspiration came from?
