Wood: New Pages
persimmon vessel
Wood, since boyhood, has been a passion. One also shared by my father and grandfather so I had worthy teachers and opportunity. There will ultimately be three pages featuring some examples in each category: Furniture, vessels, bowls and spoons, and structure and milling (yet to come).

The Ascent of Maclura pomifera
Spiral stair in Hedge (Maclura pomifera, bodark, bois d’ark, osage orange). Designed by my friend Cody to join a 100 year old barn basement to the floor above. The barn, just outside of Fall River, got hit by a twister about 4-5 years ago and is now being rebuilt as a workshop and living quarters. The stair isn’t officially finished, we already have a list of things we want to change, but this is it in it’s first state.
Wet!
A thing it is not often during the month of August in Kansas, especially the past few years.
I am not the only one enjoying the saturated ground.
Out on a Limb
I am stepping out on a limb. This time it is about the song. I have no realistic aims at professional musicianship. I tend towards the traditions where music was a social or intimate art form practiced by amateurs who spent more time in the dirt than the conservatory. That maybe a justification for a poorer quality than what is available, so be it, but it seems important to share a little more than just fragments. The song is called Good Father.
The drawings are for Rima, Thank you for the honor.
