Presentation for Olympia Woodworkers Guild Oct. 22, 2024

Next Tuesday I will be giving a presentation about Arts & Crafts period furniture at the regular monthly meeting of the Olympia Woodworkers Guild in Olympia, Washington. I’ll be talking about the original makers of the early 20th century, the furniture made in that time and how I go about building authentic reproductions efficiently in a modern shop. Because of the time difference my slide show and discussion will be via Zoom on my end to a live audience out on the west coast. Below are a few slides from my upcoming presentation.

In my presentation I will be showing examples of original pieces, including some original sites that are worth a visit. I also hope to dis-spell some myths about a period that is extremely popular but not always understood or presented in context. There are also examples of my own work and the methods I use in research, design, construction and finishing.

I’m honored to be asked to do this, and if you have a similar group, click my signature below to email me and get the conversation started.

      1. Bummer. I don’t think i need to join something 3,000 miles away. And the time change would probably be a killer.
