readers

now that I no longer have to keep three employees busy anymore

I have been a bit lax in my blogging for the last year or so. 

 as I finished the previous post about an art deco sideboard, out of

curiosity, I clicked on the 'stats' page … it has changed since the

last time I looked when it showed 30 day visits and you had to manually 

enter dates to view total page visits

here's where we are as of September 6th …

 one million, seven hundred seventy three thousand, eight hundred and forty five page views!!!

so, thank you readers.  I hope you have enjoyed your visits here,

and I am flattered by your attention.  I will keep writing occasionally, but

certainly not like I did from 2010 to 2014 when I was trying to share and document 

everything I did so I could remember the process and explain how we did things both 

to my employees who maybe weren't here for a particular project, or were 

working on something else, and also so as I aged, I could remember 

how things were done my own self.

as I look back through the 900 some blog posts, I am amazed and honored

at the number and variety of complex and rewarding projects our clients

have allowed us to create … 

Onward we go!

a nice walnut sideboard

we recently finished this mirrored art deco styled bar cabinet, and 

today we got a confirmation of delivery and a nice note... 

this new cabinet was a 'simplified' version of the original cabinet below that we made for another client way, way back in 2009

they are both stained/painted pieces, one with gray mirrors with a back, and the 

original with an open back ... both were fun and challenging projects.

early stages ... mortises tenons and tapers on the cnc

the openings were filled in with walnut ply, allowing spaces for the mirrors

and some 'speed racks' on the doors ..

installed the grey mirrors and sent it on its way ...
