Corner Brackets
« on: October 11, 2012, 07:23:38 pm »
Made these for a friend, they go in the upper corners of windows to hide the window covering brackets. The scrolled pieces are ?? oak with a 49 inch single cut (I measured it with a string). About a half hour and a new blade (FDUR5) for each.

These came out beautiful! When I lived in Chicago I bought a couple of these for my house and they were quite expensive.  You did a wonderful job! :)

Thank you all for the kind comments. Even though they were done for a friend, he gave me $50 for my troubles. I had probaby had $10 - $12 in supplies and 4 or 5 total hours on the project.

Oh nice, and thanks for saying how they will be used. I was thinking for a shelf. Window corners would be nice. Thanks for sharing.
