    Fantastic. I have no skills in that area, but I'm always amazed by folks who really enjoy working with wood. I have a friend who builds beautiful rod cases out of various materials (none of them are the heirloom quality you have accumulated, though), and the results are stunning. I'd tell you to enjoy the desk, but I think you already know that.

    What a great desk! That will become a family heirloom, for sure.
    Enjoy tying on it!

    I do some woodworking myself, and I've got to say that's a beauty. I love walnut.

    The tying desk is outstanding. This is a great piece, and you should be very proud!

    That is a beautiful piece of furniture. I love walnut, I think I am completely out now but I had a few scraps I hung onto for years before using them for bases to mount antler tips with a slit to hold a display fly. You will appreciate an unusual investment my college roommate made for his children. He planted a stand of walnut trees figuring by time he had past on they would be mature and his son and daughter would inherit the place and trees.

    Very nice looking desk indeed. I'll bet the memories of you and your father cutting that wood jump right out at you while tying.
    Where you go is less important than how you take the steps.

    Brad,

    Very nice work. How'd you make the table top (I'm assuming that's not a single piece of walnut)? Glue up? spline? biscuit?

    Regards,
    Scott
