I am awaiting approval from a potential customer to build this unit. Thought it might make a nice show and tell if I get it.

Good luck on snagging the contract.

Man - O - Man! My fingers are crossed hoping you get that contract! That would make a super how and tell project! Very nice design job! But be careful - he might want diamond shaped glass! :confused:

Mark, hope you get the project, and looking forward to seeing the progress. Looks as if you've mastered SketchUp well. Nice drawing.

Thanks Tom I can usually figure it out but still takes a while on some things. Thats ok with me that is the way I learned woodworking, by making every mistake possible! :o :D

It has taken a while on this project. The homeowner had to get a carpenter involved to build a wall, an electrician to move some electrical and also had someone install marble for the hearth and surround. I am about ready to start the construction of the mantle. I will be working it around some other jobs so there may be some time gaps so just bare with me. I have some pictures from the job sight that I will post as soon as I have time to dump my camera.

I like to start a mantle project by building the breast plate first. It may be Thursday before I have time to work on this.
