You done good, lad. small face plate & waste block or chuck & tenon?

Thanks guys.

Bud, chuck and tenon always on these, the tenon becomes the bottom/foot for very little in the way of waste, at least on the outside form...I dump a ton of waste out of the insides! Wink

Beautiful piece. I even like the finial. And you know me and finials. This piece of burl is a fantastic piece of wood. You did it and yourself proud. 8)

Chris,

Awesome piece!! Could you post a closeup photo of just the finial on this? I have been doing quite a bit of playing with finials lately, and am greatly interested in the details of them.
