Hey Tcleve, how did that angled joint work out on the tile top. Did it stay the same or did it need to be reworked?

F96T12 (HO) with energy saving ballasts. Not sure of the wattage of the bulb (gee, I really should know that as an electrician, shouldn't I?), but the amperage draw of the ballast is 1.47 amps at 120 volts for (2) of these bulbs. Always use the ballast amperage rating, not the rating of the wattage stamped on the fluorescent bulb.

The place looks great. That was the only pimple that I could see on the project. Good work.

That was the Christmas before last. I didn't build her anthing this last Christmas.
I did make my Dad a table though, also made a table that is currently homeless.
Made one for Joe too.

Nice work Leo.
How much did it cost to fill that box?
Do you ever get a request to "age" or "distress" a new project?
If so does it come easy to you?

The total to fill it has not yet to be determined.  She is still working on filling to capacity.
I have done distressed finishes. And I cringe when I have to. After spending countless hours
building something, taking the care and detail to keep it looking good and then bashing it up with
a chain and a sack of nuts, bolts and nails just brings a tear to my eye. It always looks good in
the end, but to get there is distressful in itself. I haven't done a distress pc in quite some time,
not since I had opened up my own business. I had done quite a few when working for others though.
