Residency requirements

North Carolina Woodworker is aimed primarily at Woodworkers in North Carolina. We will accept automatically users from NC, VA, TN, SC.

All others registrant's accounts will be put into Moderation, once they have verified their email address. Most of these registrants will be declined by our staff. This has nothing to do with you personally.. It has to do with our desire to maintain the local nature of our discussions, functions, etc. However, we do accept non-residents in a few special cases.

  • People who, in the staff's judgment, offer special skills that are not represented in depth with our current membership.
  • People who have a special interest in woodworking in North Carolina and/or work in the state.
  • People who represent manufacturers and/or retail vendors of woodworking tools.
  • Other exceptions may be made as deemed appropriate by the staff of www.ncwoodworker.net

However, registrants that do not meet the automatic registration requirement , MUST provide information as to why they should be considered for non resident membership. This is done by filling in the "Non Resident Join Request" field of the registration application. Remember that a non resident registration is placed into moderation. When the staff reviews these accounts, their attention is placed on the "Non Resident Join Request" field. If it is NOT filled in, the registration will automatically be declined.

Bathroom Vanity Finally Finished
Today the remaining hardware that has been ordered for some time finally arrived and I was able to complete my bathroom vanity projest. It is built from solid cherry with Lacewood panels and the drawers and doors are banded with African Blackwood. The finish is two coats of amber shellac, then sanded and sprayed with pre-cat laquer. I used Soss invisible hinges for the doors and full extention soft close drawer slides. This was the first time I used either of these products and I don't know if I will ever use the Soss hinges again; a real PITA to install. The top is 1 1/4" absolute black granite. I used the same color granite tiles for the bathroom floor and as soon as I get finnished grouting it, the vanity will be installed.

WOW, another outstanding piece coming out of your shop. The Blackwood banding really ties everything together with the top. And the Cherry case with the Lacewood panels goes together stupendously. I love the foot flare Beautiful design all around

Beautiful design. I like how you banded the doors with blackwood, and the finish really brings everything together nicely. Great Job

Dino,
I think you got everything right on this one
A truly striking piece of furniture with unbelievable wood matching. Heck, even the hardware texture matches the lacewood

That is a beautiful piece of furniture, Dino! I wouldn't call it a vanity, it is definitely FURNITURE.

Great job
