YOU can make this

I was asked if I was interested in contributing to a book about DIY Plywood Furniture a few weeks ago. I've been putting aside a little time on this and rediscovering SolidWorks, which is great for relatively quick 3D sketch modeling. The author of the book is Philip Schmidt and it will be published by Storey Publishing (both of which specialize in DIY type books which are pretty cool).  Their links:






About the Book
The book will contain 101 clever, custom, modern home furnishings and accessories that you can build on a budget using basic hand and power tools. Many are easy to disassemble for storage or to take with you when you move (great for renters and those on the lam). All are made with standard materials available at lumberyards, home centers and online suppliers.



Also I've been on a material hunt lately, for these shells (walnut maybe) and good feathers. I had success finding each today! 
Small pleasures.
