I'm building a bedroom cheval mirror, and I've come to a stopping point. I've finished the frame for the mirror, but I was stuck for the longest time on how I wanted the stand to look. Well, I've finally figured that out by creating a design in Autodesk Mechanical Desktop (AutoCad w/ 3d). See this pic: http://ncwoodworker.net/gallery/files/9/7/7/BriansMirror.jpg . My problem is Home Depot only sells 1.5"x1.5"x36" pieces of Red Oak. These aren't long enough for my sides, as the mirror frame is 73.5" long itself. I'm in need of 1.5"x1.5"x45" or 2"x2"x45". I need the pieces planed as I do not have this equipment (at least for now...until that dreaded wood disease keeps stealing from my wallet). I wish I had a better source for wood, but it seems that Woodcraft only has rough wood that I can't do much with. Can anyone in the Pineville/Charlotte area help a poor woodworking soul? :eusa_pray If possible, I would like to watch the planing/jointing process, as I'm very unfamiliar with the equipment/process and I always like to learn more....oh, and I'll pay for the wood of course!
Thanks, Brian
