Petey - Thanks for the compliment...
Steve Rasmussen - Thanks Steve. Yes, Everything I've posted since finding this great site is from our 9-piece bedroom set. I'm currently working on similar pieces for our living room. About those top drawer accents - They are a twist on the original G&G accents. They were suggested by the wife. Smart girl, I'm glad I listened!
Pottz - Thanks. I try to resaw and mill the veneers down to 1/8 inch. But it can be problematic with Mesquite because of it's cracked, gnarly nature. Too thin and they can just fall apart. The veneers usually end up being a tad thicker than 1/8. Yes, I do some black epoxy fill work if it is a structural issue. But the wife likes the natural cracks, so we tend to leave them unfilled for the most part. Thanks again for the kind comments. Much appreciated...
