Writing Desks

I'm still working on them but at the moment I've gotten bogged down with several other jobs that need attention. I'm working on my daughter's room trying to get it finished so she likes it, it's been a work in progress and it's time it gets done.
Plus I ran out of money for the wood for the desks so they are waiting till more money finds its way to us, hopefully not long now.

Outfeed table router lift

I guess I need to tell you what is going on with this photo.
I have a dedicated router table, but I wanted a second station so I don't need to break down a setup, and I found a second lift at a pawn shop that needed some parts and the price was right, so I got it and had the parts delivered.
So far this has really made a difference for me in my work.

Getting to the Legs

Here is my first attempt at shaping a cabriole leg, it went better than I thought it would but I can see that I am going to need practice. I'm really excited to get to work on all these legs.
You will notice that I messed  up on the bottom of the foot and offset my center in the wrong location, it should have been on the line above and left of where it is. Don't know how I managed to do that but I did, I'll have to pay closer attention to that on the next go around.
