Don't you wish you were Clint's Mom?

For the doubters out there (Leonard, me) Clint is able to complete a wood project in under 18 months. He began this project two months ago and had it finished in time to stick it in the back of Grammy and Papa Cresap's RV to haul back to California. It was a surprise, and Grammy loved it. She said it made her feel very appreciated and loved. She is. We've really missed them and the monthly visits we got in San Diego. They came out for Tal's baptism (They call the RV the BBC mobile--Baptism Blessing and Cannon). We had them for 8 days and could have had them much longer (there's a house for sale across the street...). And the neighbors were really envious of the cannon that sat on our front porch for the week. ;)

So this is a sewing cabinet that has a three-level lift that is spring-loaded to lift the sewing machine flush with the top when in use, and down below when it is time to close the cabinet. It's made of cherry and maple. The front panels are quilted maple and the banding around the top is tiger-striped maple. Look for the gold shimmering in that maple grain. Clint employed the kids a lot in the project and sometimes I took them off and away.
