What about that project is worthy of posting?

Upon contemplation, perhaps you are correct. So, in it's place, I
submit this project, as being more worthy of your talents. Enjoy, and
be sure to post a picture of your efforts on A.B.P.W.

Chuckle. Okay, now that we got that out of the way...

What prompted you to post that oval picture frame project? Is it
something you made? Is that something you wrote up for them? Is it
something you admire?

That particular project is at least 30 years old (age doesn't improve
everything), is a bad picture of a mediocre project, and is awkward
from an esthetic point of view.

Notice how the sides of the oval look thinner than the top and bottom?
it's an illusion, but it's an illusion that everyone sees. Take a look
at this project:

That's not an award winning project either, but at least it has some
more graceful lines and accounts for the apparent disparity in frame
thickness by accentuating the ends.

So...what prompted you to post that project?
