Just wrapped these up. Will bring to the house tomorrow.

White oak, stain is honey. Drawer is functional. (edit, had red oak before, that was incorrect)

Can't get pic to load.... Sigh.

That's OK Douglas. I'm certain they look as nice as the bed, and why are the matching dressers not complete yet?????:D
Pour yourself a cold iced tea, ask the missus to put on your favorite album and relax... you have earned it.

Dressers were done some time ago.

Still won't upload. 3 strikes. Try tomorrow from my iMac.

i'm pretty sure these didn't cost me that much.

there's about 12 board feet of lumber in each table. so at $4/bf or so (i don't recall what the lumber cost, but that's close), that's about $50 of lumber in each.

so if i were to sell these, i'd ask 10x material cost, or about $500 each.

The bedside reading lamps are too tall, and placed too far away from you being horizontal...so you need a remote turn off for each side....

I have a marble lamp from my folks house and it's short and near, so I just reach out......but last night I fell asleep sitting upright and wife had to hassle me down flat.....DEEP sleep......snore.....


:issues::rofl::seasix:

Sweet work on your stuff there man......:seasix:
