That’s way to organized for me...I’d be afraid to mess it up

@Kembo will be impressed as am I.
With wall back up I did some rearranging & put things back in place. Tomorrow is major clean up & getting everything in place & working.
This was from yesterday, when I started back on my bookcase build.
Got some maple that I had run through the planer back in September edge jointed, cut to length, and ripped. Also cut curves in a few pieces. Next step is sanding.
Sanding didn't happen today like I hoped it would, but I did get a small log of spalted maple cut up, a couple small/quick projects going, and got my kiln loaded with stuff I need to stabilize. This evening I need to clear some snow from the driveway.

I made a couple really big, thin, cutting boards today. Tomorrow I'll chop a hole in one of them.
I made a replacement drawer pull for a colleague at work. I had a piece of oak laying around and got to practice using my collet chuck. It was fun to do.
Can you guess which one is the original?

That is not what I've taught you grasshopper! Tony
Just wait and see. It'll be really cool.
The one on the right, it's not quite as oxidized. Are those sewing machine cabinet drawers?
They do look like sewing machine drawers. I guessed the one on the left, as it had more detail?
I would say the original is on the left.
That would be my guess. All the same dam good job.

The one on the right is the new one. I thought he said it was from a desk, but they do look like sewing machine drawers.
I was going to say the one on the left was the original, because the grain is tighter in the wood. Then I remembered we were talking Karl and I figured the on the left was the likely older wood, but the newer drawer.
Very nicely done!!

Drawer is suppose to be left to right and then right to left and repeat. I see I messed up the third drawer. Will correct immediately!!, also I see that all of the paper is not oriented in the same direction. Also corrected. Ha...But! the numbers are out of sequence
Is the green liner like @ripjack13’s oriental rug?
You'd think the guy in the Orient would have an orientatial rug in the shop wouldn't you?
