Very nice! I like 0073 best. The color, proportions, scale, and leg splay are all just perfectly sweet.

I'll second that but I'm also quite partial to 92.

Great project, Eiji! I have some 8/4 ash I may try this with.

Is the bench solid timber & if so what thickness is it, it looks to be about 60mm. Is the mitre around 95 degrees & is it only reinforced with domino's ? I think they look superb. A client of mine just cut down a huge "monkey puzzle " tree so i might try to get some from him & have a go at one of these.
Cheers, Woodguy.

The bench is solid wood and the angle is 96 deg. It was taken from 8/4 stock so its probably 45-48mm thick. I dont remember.
I did have to miter cross cut on the tablesaw though. the Kapex didnt have the power to cut that maple. and the ts on the guide rail doesnt have the accuracy needed for that joint to be perfect.
