Walnut credenza! It took me all winter to build. I’m so proud of it! (lemmy.ca)

I don’t mean to put you down, but instead of spending your whole winter working on this, you could have just bought something with the same build quality and appeal from a master craftsperson for thousands of dollars.

I think the people downvoting you are missing that you've called OP a master craftsman / are having fun.

It's an incredible piece of work. Beautiful.

Nuance is challenging through text - both coming and going.
I’d considered some sort of silliness indicator, but was too tired to find one that matched my tone.
Alas.

(For the record, it’s great work. And my winter project has been to poorly make about 60% of a headboard that is mostly MDF - so I’m clearly not in a place to judge anything.)
