    I like the care given to the grain matching and the way the legs are presented.

    A single picture does not a gallery make; am I missing a link somewhere to more?

    Top work, Brian! I just let my FWW sub expire, typical! as Simon says, great work on the grain match and quality.

    Congratulations Brian! !

    I love the very tight gaps and the way the front of the piece almost looks like a single board - the whole thing is in nearly the same plane and looks nearly seamless. The grain match is perfect. And it's just so minimalist, which I love. No adornment or distractions. The wood speaks for itself. I think Krenov would have approved.
