Nice work.
Does anyone here have any Japanese woodworking tools? I just got back from a TDY there and I picked up a Gyokucho razor saw. It's a Japanese pull saw and they are a lot cheaper if you buy them in Japan.

These are $45 on Amazon and I picked mine up for $28 with an extra blade.

I have a two-sided one like that, Earl. I have one with a had back like yours, too.
The one I use most is a folding one that'd put you in the mind of a felco pruning saw. The blade is a little thicker and stiffer.
I just use them for notching and cutting tabbed parts out of sheets.
Love em.

love those saws. My father in law has one and I will be picking one up at some point in time.

Thanks. Now that this project is complete I have to choose something else to do from the long honey do list. I think the next thing I build is going to be some sort of holder for all of my wife's essential oil bottles. Those things are all over my house.

I still need to poly the bar rails and pour the 2 part epoxy on the top.
