Yes, they do make a lot of sense in certain situations. I made a pair of bedside tables for clients last year from hardwood T&G flooring they had left over. The insides of the carcase was rough as, each board bowed or cupped and too much work to flatten them. So the NL method was just the ticket. A simple matter to fit each drawer bottom nicely, and then fit the sides clear of the carcase.

Thanks David! News Gothic could be it. The font/type face appears to have been available in the time period. I had thought about but rejected the Leroy lettering sets based on the 3 but you could be right. At the time, other companies manufactured the key and other devices that use the same lettering. I remember some shortwave receivers and a direction finder receiver that I was given when I was about Ian's age. They had seen action in WWII. They had the same or nearly the same lettering on them. (I wish I still had them but they got passed on being too heavy to move.) I guess I'll leave the labeling as it is on the key now, though. Your clues led me to find a set of fonts created from the Leroy lettering guides. My next overly detailed model might be the scriber and of course I'd need to model the templates.

I just get a model with thousands of groups and components where all axis are wrong. I'm looking for that plugin too.

I agree with you and I have sat in some comfortable classic Adirondack chairs in my time. My favorite place to sit in them was at the Naniboujou Lodge overlooking Lake Superior. They have a different style that I should model someday.

Lovely.

Thank you, gentlemen. The textures are hand drawn and the edge style is called Pencil Speed and comes from the SUC Pencil Styles from the Shop. FWIW, you can at least see a photo of the real thing here.

I find that to be common too. Sometimes worse than others (the part about tools not dropping out for example). Also I notice many plugin operations hang for a long time after the action is complete on screen.

Thank you. Check out the Rough Cut episode showing how to build it.

Very nice Dave.......this type of chair reminds me of a shoe store we shopped when I was a child......I can picture the aluminum sizing tool under it...... (Brannock devise)

Nice

Perfect !!!

now I'm more curious as before

Thanks Dave. I've been playing with the clock on the table. Decided I like the black clock better than the ivory colored one so I changed the top on the table. I've also been playing with a KT version but I'm not totally happy with it yet. [image: M4lg_CocktailTablewclock2.png]

Thank you sir.

Great job Dave. Really like your sketchy style.

Nice result and very informative blog post!

The very best in this new phase of your life.
