Waterdog,

Well let me say that whatever you have been told it appears that you are paying attention *peep*  I like the wood combo and noticed the slight ogee cove you put on the base edges.  All around it looks very solid to me, but without seeing the profile and chalk marks on the rails its hard to comment on any issues you might be having on roll over for the other rail.  Nice workmanship on the inlay and parquet look as well.

Nasty fever ain't it...I got it bad as well and haven't been able to shake it for a few years now...only problem is I wanna call in sick EVERY day at work and get in the shop. *bannana*

Keep posting

Do you find that most of your chalk marks are toward the front of the rails?
