Pictures always make things look cleaner. It is just a steam box though, not much can go wrong with it as far as constructing it, simple butt joints, no glue, it'll look like hell after a few uses!:D

So true. I did finish the box yesterday, all in all it took me about 3 hours of time to build it. And it's solid and clean looking. I'll get more pics up tonight. Did have a couple set backs that'll show up in the pics, some steam is escaping through a few knot cracks. You think epoxy would withstand the heat, if I filled in the holes with it?

Don't see why not. Worth a shot. What've you got to lose?

Sometimes I can over think. And sometimes it's nice to have some one come in and say, "so where's the problem!". Thanks Gene.

I've seen your rockers. If they are a product of over thinking, I'm all for it.
