-- mtnwild (Jack), It's not what you see, it's how you see it.

You’ve got something to sit in for every room of the house. This is a great looking version.

Darrel,

Beautifully done! It’s what we’ve come to expect from your shop.

I have plans (in my head) to build a G&G style of ‘exoskeleton’ clock – not something that the G brothers did, but in their wonderful arts-n-craft style. I’ll forwarf pictures when I get the piece done.

Thanks for posting. Look forward to your newsletters. Max

WOW!! Excellent design & craftsmanship.

-- Dennis Zongker

Fabulous piece….....well done.

-- I will just keep doing it till I get it right.

Hi Darrell – nice to see a piece of your work so early in the morning – gets the blood flowing for the day ahead. We visited Tery and Sue Hahm’s home in Wisconsin in April, which was Galenberg’s big G&G project – beautiful work as well.

-- Phil in British Columbia

That is a fantastic looking peice of artistrie…great job Darrell !

You just keep raising the bar. Thanks——Fantastic!

I don’t have the words to tell you how much I love this piece and the self evident craftsmanship in it. Thanks for showing it to us.

-- Mike, American in Norway

Thanks everyone!—
Hi Phil – Are Tery and Sue the couple we met at Pasadena last year? Will you and Marilyn make it to Pasadena this year? – this year’s Saturday night event will be held at the Ford House!!!

Man, you are a piece of work! This Settee is exquisite. I could look at it all day long!

-- Joe,Texas,www.woodworkerJoe.com

Totally awesome!

-- Les, Wichita, Ks. (I'd rather be covered in saw dust!)

I’m humble by your work, as the musician said above “I could look all day long”. This piece is a show stopper and a inspiration to us all. Thank so much for sharing all you work with us here at Lumberjocks….Blkcherry

Darrell… beautiful Settee. HOw does one handle the upholstery for the backs. I know how to do the seat but ut doesnt translate to the back.

This is supreme craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing.

-- Mateo

Beautiful Settee it a show stopper
Thanks for shariing

Awesome…I am envious and would love to build something so beautiful. I’m with the others…do you have plans for this?

-- gbear, Carmichael, CA

Oh, by the way, I like yours better than Gallenberg’s even though his is very nice.

-- gbear, Carmichael, CA

Mateo – in one photo you will see the frame for the upper upholstery – the frame slips into dowels at the top and screws are run in from the back seat rail to the frame to lock it in place – I don’t do the actual upholstery – I have a guy that does that for me.

gbear.. sorry no plans for this one

-- Darrell Peart - Seattle - www.furnituremaker.com - author G&G Design Elements for the Workshop

Excellent!

Very very nice furniture.
How long do you work on a piece like this?

Steve – I didn’t take exact records of my time but it is somewhere around 135 hours
