Arts and Crafts Fireplace Mantel, stain grade

In this video I build an Arts and Crafts fireplace mantel. This is my second fireplace mantel video and I thought it was different enough from my last one, that it would be neat to have the two similar projects yet two totally different outcomes. I start by selecting the best looking materials for the front of the legs and move on to building the structure. I use a biscuit joiner for the joinery tasks, and I spend a good amount of time show how I build the various details that give this fireplace mantel an Arts and Crafts feel. I finish the video by showing in detail how I fit and attach the mantel to the existing fireplace. I hope you are at least moderately entertained and better yet, pick up a couple useful tips.
