I recently received my rocking chair as a gift from Jean B. I absolutely love it. It is more than a piece of furniture, it is a piece of art. I just wanted to know what you used to finish the wood and what type of maintenance you would recommend for the dry climate of Idaho. It is just beautiful to look at. Thank you again. - Robin

Dear Scott,


Thank you for the New Year greeting! 2008 finds us busy as usual but we were able to enjoy many good times with friends during the transition to the new year. We had a few gatherings at our place and on each occasion "Richard's chair" was a point of discussion. Some even commented on it before noticing the nice Christmas tree which is at the entrance! Also, one of our dinners included 11 people at our table which seats 8, so the chair definitely became prime seating.


I still owe you a picture of Richard and his birthday gift (I have many!). As soon as I can get myself organized, I will send that to you.


All the best to you and your family in the new year.

Want to let you know I gave Judy the chair you built for her birthday yesterday. It was a spectacular hit – she absolutely loves it! It is a gorgeous piece and I am delighted with the design, wood and outstanding workmanship. You are an awesome craftsman. Thank you very much for building a piece we will treasure forever.

Happy Holidays.

Randy

Dear Scott,

The chair arrived yesterday. I must complement you on the workmanship. The chair looks wonderful. I was not disappointed. For a while, I almost forgot how much I had paid for it!

Hi Scott...just wanted to let you know that I rec'd the chair. I brought it home on Friday, unpacked it, and it's absolutely beautiful. It's just everything i could have wanted, thank you so much. I LOVE it. It arrived safely, no damage and it's just a treasure. - Nina

Hello Valerie and Scott

The rocker was delivered today. My wife is Nicola is overjoyed and and I am having to cook my own dinner as she refuses to get off it. Thank you both, it is even better than I expected, a real work of art.

Best wishes

John

I love it - thanks for doing such a great job!

Scott,

Yesterday I had a great day picking out lumber with probably the best Claro Walnut provider, Jim Hafferty (Burls and More) on the west coast. Our project is the Maloof rocking chair. In the course of picking through thousands of board feet of lumber we decided to find some examples of the chair on the net and I suggested your page.

We both felt that you correctly interpreted Maloof’s efforts and have successful improved on them. We appreciated the fact that you gave a much deserved nod to Sam on the classic chair. We also appreciated that you took Sam’s efforts as a foundation and reinterpreted them with your other efforts.

My thoughts on art (and really all endeavors) are that we build on the achievements of others. Sam made huge stride in redefining a chair but it is for the next generation to work on his efforts and redefine again. I think that you have made successful steps in that direction.

Best of luck with your work. I look forward to watching your page for new projects.

Dear Scott,

The rocking chair ordered by Chester G. was delivered yesterday to us here in Sunnyvale, CA. It arrived in perfect condition; we have started using it already and it is a fine piece of furniture! Comfortable and handsome.

Best regards,

Scott,

I received the rocker last week. I can't tell you how happy I am with it."It is simply beautiful"

I have many years of experience with woodworking and all I can say is "You do your work as good as it can be done, it doesn't get any better"

Hope to see you soon in California. Let us know if you will be in the Art Show this year, Michele and I would love to thank you in person.

Sincerely,

Mark D.

Scott,
I hope you can imagine how thrilled my husband, Brad, and I were to discover our new rocking chair on Christmas morning. I would have chosen the exact one if I had chosen it myself--and it means so much to me to have a piece by one of our exhibitors! It is truly an exquisite work of art, and we will treasure it forever... My father-in-law, Dave, told us that you were very kind and moved us up on the schedule so that we could receive it for Christmas (and in time for the baby's arrival). We will be sure to send you a picture of her being rocked to sleep! Thanks so much!

Hi Scott,

Wanted you to see (photos enclosed) how great your unique stools look in our new home. They are so beautiful. The workmanship and the wood are just what we wanted. Thank you so very much.

With much appreciation George and Tiny

Dear Scott: The rocker arrived on Friday -- we were not here, but there was someone here to accept it.
Unpacked and in place in my office, it is just fabulous. I will treasure it always...

Best wishes, Margie
