    I'd be interested in some 'thin' mohogany. Maybe some not so thin as well. Lee :gar-Bi

    Re: I cheated, now I feel dirty please tell me it is OK before I pocket screw everyth David, you helped me cut the back legs for these chairs with your bandsaw. There's a BUNCH of pocket holes in these pieces. You have to turn them upside down to tell. My grandkids didn't seem to mind...
