She's got legs

Decent curves and fine legs:

Ok, ok ... so most of my woodworking projects have been pretty linear, with
a few coves or radius curves. These ogee feet are my first successful
attempt at shaping wood, and I'm pretty hooked. This one was made using
the bandsaw method described in Bird's book "Period Furniture Details."

Virtuosity. We all have to get it out of our systems. With me it was claw
and ball from Marlow's book. Two sets and no plans for more.

Next set is the one where you make the blind dovetails?

Don't forget the glue blocks.

That's funny. Only because I distingly remember singing that to myself when
I was in the home stretch of a my first not-so-rectitinear piece.

Not being an exclusively leg-man, "I wanna see more!" (he said getting a
woodie)
