If the towels being used are just for deco, then I would minimize any Plugs and holes outside the bracket and use Keyholes on the back.<BR/><BR/>If its being used, I would counter sink and plug, 2 Holes on top and 1 on bottom, just because of the weight from the top and less on bottom.<BR/><BR/>I will Post a Simple one for you to see what I'm referring to, I Think it would be an asset for you to have along with the toilet paper holder as well, Might as well have a complete set.<BR/><BR/>Personally, I never make one without the other, They go together, Like Biscuits an gravy, Chicken Noodles and taters, if you get my Drift!<BR/><BR/>Anyway, Because, it may be a little Difficult to get it the first few times, never give up no matter what. If I did, I would have never achieved what I Have in life!<BR/><BR/>HandiJimmy "Handi" Warnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08394419831007360273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7758243707730700383.post-6224017562418940972008-10-07T04:59:00.000-04:002008-10-07T04:59:00.000-04:00Not the bar, I meant the actual panel holding the ...Not the bar, I meant the actual panel holding the bar! I had a router table, cut a jig invested almost $200 to cut a these things out to go with the seats. I could never get the boards lined up right. Probably because my heart was just not in it. and the prototypes were such a disaster. I gave up on them.The Great Ethan Allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01325538741317535595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7758243707730700383.post-6738667456872906062008-10-06T07:51:00.000-04:002008-10-06T07:51:00.000-04:00Well, I Would say, Straight out working on it, Jus...Well, I Would say, Straight out working on it, Just a few Hours.

Straight edges? what are those? and how do you get them? Anyway, Mine turned into these wavy disasters, I only saved some of them from the burn pile because I liked the carving.
