This is a sketch my granddaughter Hailey sent me. It's a table she wants to build, and I am excited to work on this project with her!
Hailey is a wonderful kid—she's curious about everything and very creative. Today is also her 17th birthday!

I’m glad I looked first!

This project dates back to 1993. I wrote an article about it for Home Furniture Magazine in 1997 (Taunton Press issue # 11).

I hadn't quite figured out the details of Greene and Greene yet.
Some of it looks clumsy to my eye now.

Much bigger turn out in West Seattle than I had expected. We marched for 2 1/2 miles down California Ave. Every intersection had a group making noise !

Every morning I go for a walk in Lincoln Park (Seattle). Wonderful way to start the day!

A project from 16 years ago. It’s a Game Table that I adapted from the Greene & Greene Gamble House Dining table.

This is a project from last fall. It's a reproduction (with some liberties taken) of the Greene and Greene-Gamble House Dining Room Table. I made two of them - one for a client and one for us.
There is a lot of unseen work in the slide system!

We always go to Endolyne Joes for breakfast on Sunday morning. It’s my favorite place in Seattle!
Some of the tables are game tables with small drawers on either side. People write notes and stuff in the drawer. This morning there was this! Love it!

A Greene and Greene style conference table I made a few years ago.

A couple of tables from last year. I call these
"Tempest Tables". I got the idea from the swirling shape of needles in our driveway after a storm. #woodworking #furnituremaker

Some images of a couple of older projects - Greene & Greene Blacker House Rocker and Settee. These were more difficult than they appear. The front legs are parallelograms, but the arm is square; it all meets at the knuckle where it needs to be rectified. #woodwork #greeneandgreene #furnituremaker

New design underway. I'm calling it
"The Cascade End Table". (or nightstand)
Two of them are in process. They are spec pieces without a home yet. If you're interested in purchasing them, please let me know.

Getting ready for today!

This is how I am feeling today - equal parts pissed off and frustrated - and lost! I sent my two senators ( Murray & Cantwell) emails this morning. See the image description for the text of my email.
