Beautiful work Hans,

You never fail to amaze me.

What are the two contrasting woods and what areas are you planning to stain?

God Bless! Spirithorse

the colour difference is a coincident created by the light its all made from cheap plywood, I was thinking stain everything but the mirror frame and the main cabinet a wine red I make my own stain with fruit juices so its hard to describe the colour but wine red is about as close as I can come

Hans, When I saw the beginning of this piece, I was under  the impression that is was going to turn out to be a nice item when you were finished with it. but I  was wrong..................................

It is not a nice piece but rather a truly great and wonderful piece of art. I hope you are able to teach me a few things  when you come and stay with us for a few days. :lol:  :lol:  :cool:  :D

Hans, you give me mixed emotions.  I can't wait to see your staining espically using homemade stain.  Very intriging, however, what if something goes awry, I'm thinking you need to do another to stain and keep this one as is.....

Paul that has happened on a few instances But I always over come you see using fruit juices as stain you can use bleach to clean it up again and re-do It doesn't take it all of but enough to redo the piece and if all else fails make a new one.
