I am impressed. Brian, you really took the advice and pulled if off. The piece has a delicate, modern flavor with a hint of Asian inspiration. It really sits well, as the various elements work well together. Bravo!

Nice to see someone take an old idea and reinvent it. Hope it works as good as it sounds.

If you get another call about that wooden toy, tell the caller that the toy from "Witness" was a marble wizard or marble racer. It's basically a series of wooden tracks built into a type of maze contraption. Marbles are dropped onto the tracks, which tilt and move.

I really like the design of the table's metal base, and the chairs, too.

I never thought a bookcase could make me smile! Nice work. You could also name this piece "The Critic" and dump romance novels all over the floor.

Yeah right, "Hank Gilpin." I know you were hanging out with Larry David. Who knew he was a woodworker?

I think I still have a few cans of Carver Tripp finishes collecting dust in a corner of my shop. Shows you how well I keep up with maintenance.

Collector's item? Maybe someone on eBay will buy them.

Very cool. Great to see a new take on an old form. Did you develop the clock face?
