Frank Ramsay says "The sideboard is Padauk, Maple, Cherry and Ebony. This was my first project using Padauk. I had seen the wood in the store and naively decided it was the color and figuring I wanted to work with. Not knowing that when working Padauk you do not get sawdust -- only dust! Fine red dust that gets everywhere and stays for ever. It is also a very brittle wood so chips very easily when trying to fit tight joints together. But a fun project."

"The table is made from Padauk, Maple and Ebony. This was made to complement the sideboard. I changed the handle from the sideboard design to a more solid design."
