Re: How Not to Drive Your Wife Crazy: Mockup Before Milling

I am a computer geek and guess what my favorite design technology is? A pencil and graph paper. Maybe it is because I use a computer all day, but I much prefer drawing my designs. I tried Google Sketchup (before Google owned it), a few of the CAD programs, Visio (I use it alot for work), and Photoshop, but I still prefer the old fashion way. I haven't made anything yet that I felt warranted a mockup, but I do plan on building a nice computer desk as my next project and I am going to do a mockup first. Also, I plan on building both of my children colonial style school desks (they are home schooled) and I plan on doing a mockup of that as well.

Nice blog post, thanks.

Re: Shipping furniture- a happy ending

Thanks for this post. I would like to start my own furniture business and I always wondered what shipping company professional furniture makers use to ship delicate custom pieces. You answered a big unknown for me. Thanks again.
