And lately it has been raining often. Well since it was going to rain I decide rather then slog around in the mud cutting logs I would stay indoors. I have been wanting to do some woodworking and just didn't have the opportunity to get started. The rain and the humidity combined to give me that opportunity. I am building several things at once. I will often build several of the same project but I decided to change it up. I am building one each of several project for a change of pace. The projects are a walnut dresser, an oak hope chest, and finally a federal card table. I started on all three and made some progress on all of them. It is kind of nice to change back and forth between projects hopefully I can keep all of them straight. I am making the table apron out of brick laid sycamore. It helps to have lots of clamps. I cut this sycamore out of a couple of really large logs many years ago. The quartersawn sycamore wood is really a beautiful wood and works really easy with hand or power tools.
