Jim had always been fascinated by Queen Anne cabriole legs and wanted to make a piece incorporating them. After retirement, he decided to tackle the lowboy in Phil Lowe’s FWW #201 article. The plans from the article and related video were indispensible in providing guidance and developing the skills needed to complete the project. Jim says, “I am deeply thankful and indebted to the late Mr. Lowe for sharing his knowledge with the FWW readership and the woodworking community at large.”
