Shortly after leaving school at 16 and with only a hope of working with wood for a living I was in a bookshop in Eastbourne UK. I found the book 'Sam Maloof Woodworker' I'd never seen anything like it before.When I was 30 I made a fair attempt at a copy of one of his rockers.That book is one of the most looked at books on my shelf, is a constant inspiration and my biggest regret is that I never met the man whose work it showed. Inspirational is somehow not an adequate enough word.To me he was woodwork - and as he described himself ' a woodworker' is how he will be remembered by us all.

Congratulations on making such a beautiful item. I love the bright colour of wood inside the cabinet. I looks delicate without being flimsy. I just love it. well done
