Commission for a friend...
He was looking for a V-day gift, so he came to me. Six hours later...

He loved it.

Re: Commission for a friend...
Christopher, great job
I was just thinking this morning "where has Christopher been" -
What happen to the days when we where satisfied with what we had and really didn't care if we had what we didn't -

Re: Commission for a friend...
Yeah, I haven't been posting much. Just lurking about here and there. I haven't had many commissions lately, and that is where 90 percent of my woodwork comes from. I very sledom do work for myself, just to do it. It kinda stinks, frankly. I would love to do more ww just for me. I am in the middle of a balancing act with all of my commitments: Wife, job, business, dogs, and 4 special needs kids. I have been streached kinda thin.
On a good note, my 3 adoptive kids are getting closer and closer to being officially ours. My wife and I will be doing the finally paperwork this week, so hopefully, in the next month or so everything will be finished.
Thanks for thinkin' 'bout me.

Christopher, that is EXCELLENT work, as always.
I hope everything else you all have on your plate works out fine for you too. 
Cheers,
