PREPPING STUDENT MATERIAL I always like students t

PREPPING STUDENT MATERIAL I always like students to use nice materials in my classes, especially when they will be using sawn veneer. Today I cut up a bunch of curly maple for this weekend’s class at the Connecticut Valley School of Woodworking @ct.valley Students will choose either the cracked ice or marquetry ribbon pattern to create a tabletop, but they will learn how to make both. The cracked ice pattern is like a puzzle where you need to figure out the the correct sequence of pieces as you build it. You get to be the creator of the puzzle and the one who solves it! The ribbon pattern is also a puzzle with a sequence, but you will be using the double bevel marquetry method to create it. The work for both patterns is quiet and meditative and engages the mind, with the only sounds being the hum of the scroll saw, a block plane shooting edges and your brain at work (it’s true, you can hear it!) Both patterns take advantage of the chatoyant quality of the wood, where a simple change in grain direction can create dramatic effects. The class is almost full, so sign up now to join me this weekend in Manchester CT for this awesome class! #patterndesign #patternwork #crafteducation #workwithyourhands #veneerwork #funwithwood

SURFACE EMBELLISHMENTS CLASS Great weekend worksho

SURFACE EMBELLISHMENTS CLASS Great weekend workshop at the Wendell Castle Workshop @wendellcastleworkshop where students learned techniques to add texture and patterns to furniture. They learned to use the scroll saw to create overlay patterns, used steel stamps and carving tools to add lively patterns and textures to surfaces, created parquet veneer patterns, learned about lumber core and other veneer substances, and discovered the secrets of double bevel marquetry. All in two days! #wendellcastle #crafteducation #steelstamps #patternwork #veneering #patterndesign

CRACKED ICE AND RIBBON TABLE CLASS AT CT VALLEY SC

CRACKED ICE AND RIBBON TABLE CLASS AT CT VALLEY SCHOOL OF WOODWORKING It’s a busy time of year on the workshop front. I have an upcoming class at CVSW @ct.valley on November 9 & 10 in Manchester, CT. Students will learn to create two different patterns, a cracked ice parquet pattern and a ribbon marquetry pattern, and they will choose to focus on one pattern to complete. This class is accessible to people with basic woodworking skills but will also add new skills and design possibilities to more advanced students. Join me for a fun and focused class where you will spend time with the scroll saw and block plane to create these beautiful patterns. I will be providing some lovely curly maple to work with so you can’t go wrong. Still a couple of spots left for this awesome class. #patterndesign #marquetry #curlymaple #sidetable #madeinwesternmass #madeinmassachusetts

ON THE SURFACE AT THE WENDELL CASTLE WORKSHOP Join

ON THE SURFACE AT THE WENDELL CASTLE WORKSHOP Join me on November 2-3 at the Wendell Castle Workshop in Scottsville, NY to explore techniques to create patterned and textured surfaces to embellish boxes, tables, cabinets, picture frames, and whatever your heart desires! You will learn double bevel marquetry, how to create geometric parquet patterns, thick veneer overlays, custom steel stamping tools and more! Explore in a creative and experimental atmosphere, and there is always a lot of interaction in the classroom as students are inspired by each other's ideas. Still a few spots left in this fun class! @wendellcastleworkshop #surfacepattern #patternwork #madeinmassachusetts #madeinwesternmass #marquetry

FULL CIRCLE IS HOME IN CHICAGO The cabinet took the long journey from Massachusetts to Chicago last week and is now settled in Tess and Greg’s home. The cabinet is a wedding gift to them and it’s a wonderful feeling that it will be in my family for generations! It boggles my mind!@10itemsortess @_ruddickulous And there’s more! For those with finewoodworking.com, there will be a video series on the making of the cabinet. A permanent record of me building a cabinet, on camera! That boggles my mind even more! #madeinmassachusetts #tessandgregcabinet

A TABLE BASE I made the top as a prop for a Fine Woodworking @finewoodworkingmagazine article on cabinet scrapers. Now for the base. I made a little doodle and a crude scale model, but it took a couple of 2x4’s to rough out a mock up to see more clearly where to go. #tablebase #roundtable #madeinwesternmass #mockup #scalemodel

RECEPTION ON FRIDAY Join me with the NH Furniture

RECEPTION ON FRIDAY Join me with the NH Furniture Masters on Friday evening in Concord, NH for an opening reception for our latest exhibit! Gallery director Brad Wolcott has curated a wonderful exhibit exploring how our personal work evolves over time. Every piece has roots in what came before it. This exhibit features works by 5 makers, showing older pieces and new work side by side to highlight this concept. The exhibit will be on display until the end of March, so if you can’t make it to the reception, there will still be time. @nhfurnituremasters #finefurniture #madeinmassachusetts #madeinwesternmass #designevolution #americancrafts #concordnh #nhfurnituremasters

CARVED AND STAMPED COMPOSITION Pomelle bubinga with tinted gesso fill. I’ve done a lot of carved and stamped patterns with light wood and black fill, but very few with light fill on dark wood. I think I like!! #patterndesign #madeinmassachusetts #madeinshelburnema #bubinga
