As your vision grows so will your abilities and your understanding of this. Give it time. <br /><br />The function of any piece is the heart of it&#39;s existence and can indeed be an attraction to it especially when it&#39;s presented creatively or the function has been altered to accomplish dual purposes. (think hidden compartments or storage built in to a chair, etc.)<br /><br />I&#39;m excited to see where this path will lead you and your work, and I&#39;m proud to call you a woodworking buddy!Adamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13229894141586336218noreply@blogger.com
