What a roller coaster ride I put myself through.. Today the Bubinga Art Deco Desk was scheduled to ship.. All week long I was not happy with these dimples in the desktop that can only be seen when viewing it at a certain angle with a window in the right place.. but when those conditions were right.. There they were !!!  Everyday I tried hammering them down and thought.. This looks good now.. and everyday I also said.. no this does not look good.. ughhh. The night before shipping I just could not live with it.. I put off the shipment and sanded the dimples out and recoated the top. This is what we artisans\craftsman go though..  When we really care.

Yesterday my latest newsletter went out...

Today as long as there is no rain it's off to Greenfield Ma. to purchase some Curly Maple for a new Lima Bean table and Sapele for a new Art Deco dining table..

Hard to start from today when in my furniture maker career I have achieved so much before today.. but the blog starts now... My website www.jlfurniture.com has all I have done up to today so I guess that is where my followers get to opportunity to catch up. Maybe I will share links on my page that I have created that show the making of a piece.. which probably don't get viewed all the often and I believe you would fine interesting. 

10/5/2013... Today I start my first blog for JLfurniture.com. I have worked hard to keep my website up to date with my latest creations and use facebook extensively pretty much like a blog with work in progress pictures and of course the completed pieces along with other interesting links to great designs and incredible accomplishments. So.. Welcome and my next post will get right down to business..
