This solid walnut rocking chair is a copy of the iconic Sam Maloof design. The curves of this chair give it beauty and unmatched comfort. The complexity of this piece is deceptive. Although there are few parts, there are over 100 hours of work in this chair. Each of the parts is shaped by hand and eye, first with a bandsaw, then a grinder and then with a rasp. Once the chair parts come together and are shaped appropriately, the many hours of hand sanding begin.

This table was commissioned by a local architect for use in his own home. He drew up the set of plans and sent a four page document for me to bid from. That was truly a unique experience for me -- I am usually the one drawing up the plans. We had a collaborative e-mail conversation and sent the CAD file back and forth a few times.

The product of that collaboration is a great table with two shallow drawers and some subtle details.

My client had this to say: "Over the past few weeks I have appreciated the updates and open line of communication, which made everything go so smoothly. You are a true craftsman, and I thank you for your hard work. The piece will be admired, valued, and enjoyed for years to come. Thank you for bringing an idea to life. I sincerely hope we will be able to collaborate on a future project. "
