JeffB, how did Tammy and yourself make out with those blinds? I remember seeing your pictures in progress, but never seen a finished product.  ;D

Them slats you where sawing out, reminded me of something for my next possible project. The sliding door for a role top desk. I wonder where I'm gonna get some leather to strap on the back of the slats. I know I can get it here (locally) somewhere.

Roll top desks that I have seen have the slats glued to canvas, or some sort of cloth, not leather.

Leather will last longer though. I will be looking into it some day. A strip of rubber conveyor belt could even work.

Thanks  :)

It's also possible to run cord through the roll top slats instead of somthing on the inside.
Lot of work though.

You can BUY that stuff already made. Just order the width you want.
All truth passes through three stages:
   First, it is ridiculed;
   Second, it is violently opposed; and
   Third, it is accepted as self-evident.

Yeah, I got some here.
Thing is, if you are trying to match the wood you are using.
