   This is absolutely beautiful and fantastic. I was planning to build the Queen Anne Footstool after purchasing the plan online. I know I don't have any Mahogany or enough Cherry to build it but have plenty of Walnut. I was concerned about how it would look in Walnut but now I see what the possibilities are. I only wish that I could do the shell carvings. I would love to create something anywhere near half as beautiful as this piece of furniture. Great job, Olin!!!!!!!!!!!

   Zbop, have you started your stool? I would enjoy seeing picture when finished. Its a great project which I thoroughly enjoyed and it was a good learning experience for me. As for the shell carvings, they are fairly simple once you understand the proper layout tecnique. You can find helpful info on carving shells using FW online. I encourage you to give a try, look forward to seeing the finished work.
