Title: Companion to Rifle Chest
Post by: Tim Crosby on February 04, 2009, 07:35:35 PM

  Here is the companion to the Rifle Chest I posted awhile back. It is 50 X 21 X 16.
The Rifle Chest sits under a large window and this will be a coffee table.

I like the aged paint, adds patina and looks well used.  Great job!  Did you use pine?

Very nice work.  That rifle chest has been on my mind since you posted it.
Hope to see you at the show.
