My father-in-law passed down this key from his Navy days to our son. It just screamed at me to make something with it.
I put machine screws into the wood so that the key is not permanently attached. Boy, am I glad of that!!! I know have a completely different concept brewing my my head.
We’ll see how my hubby likes this piece…if he LOVES it I’ll likely leave it alone but if not….I’m starting work on my other concept.
