Looks great! Thanks for sharing! Maybe change the joints of the corners to 45 degree angles, instead of butt joints. Other than that it looks great!

CS, good point, I thought about it. that would make a better looking corner.
 I guess the reason I didn't was that it would have been a little tougher to glue up, as it is 1/4 ". was working with little time at that point.. Thanks

Very nice work Rick. My only critique is it needs a finish, otherwise it looks great!

DGMAN, I know it doesn't look like it but i just used a clear laquer finish on it. thanks.    Rick

My guess is you used Baltic Birch. Just a suggestion, if you have access to maybe like a cherry or something with a nice grain to it, just a clear coat would make it look even better. Looks fine to me like this though. Good job!

Looks good to me. I have plans someday to try something like this. Have the wood set aside for it, just havent done it yet. Nice job.
