Bonnet Top Highboys

By rogerlandry, member Jun 11, 2011

Several of you members wanted to see a better view of these 2 highboys I finished for my wife this past April. Making them at the same time was a big time savings. All together, they took about 7 months in my spare time after work, stretched out over a year. I bought the FWW issue #117 new in 1996 and have waited to make these with a passion since that day. 14 years latter I was finally in a position to take on the challenge. There were times when I thought I would never finish them. Dimensions are 88″ high, 42″ wide and 23″ deep. See my web page for further details, www.rogerlandry.com/newproject.html

Thanks for viewing.
