    Matthew- The end panels are going to be a great feature in the kitchen. I'm certain that anyone who appreciates woodworking would be in 7th heaven when they walk into your house! Thanks for the talk about how slab can be used for things other than table tops. We tend to forget that every board in the lumber store starts it's life as part of a round tree... Most of us rely on a sawmill to make all the decisions for us. We need to take back some of that decision making as artists!!!

    I also like the way that you explain the thoughts you have that direct your process.
    There is a certain "Eye" for design and use of it, creatively, to come up with the intended outcome.
    Personally, I would call your work___ an artistic woodworking endeavor.
    Best wishes and continued success.

So the closest I can come is these videos , and even though I go through trial and error until I actually get it and have success these video's open doors for me I would never had a clue about. There is nothing more satisfying for me than to finish a project and looking back knowing I made that. Thanks again Matt, I'll keep watching.

    I really like the fact that you made the tenons by hand because it makes you happy. I have found satisfaction in using my hand plane rather than the planer because it makes me feels as if I have more control in it's final thickness. I don't have to build to what the "thicknesser" gives me. The joy is greater in the time spent making something than the time saved with the planer or the Domino. Great to see you enjoy what you are creating. I think that is the point in all of the details that you do in your kitchen project. Thanks again Matt.

    That was interesting knowing how you approached the planning for each phase of the parts in this video. Having done little in the way of cabinet building, it really gives us novice woodworkers something to think about logically. The end panels looked awesome when they were assembled, and it will be interesting to see what they look like with a finish on them. The most visible end panel had some light and dark panels and my OCD kept wanting to switch them around so there was a light, dark, light, dark, etc. pattern. Regardless the grain patterns on both panels looked interesting and appealing.

    Really cool to see you work with some of the white oak slabs you harvested years ago.
