Topic tags/keywords: gallery fine woodworking inspiration design If you have a few minutes, or a couple hours, check out the furniture on this site…NW Fine Woodworking Or go further and look into individual woodworkers that make up the gallery… Lots of inspiration here. Mike Lingenfelter and I took a field trip here last week. It was a great place to be! -- Dorje (pronounced "door-jay"), Seattle, WA |

Definitely some amazing furniture there! I found myself especially admiring Judith Ames’ work. I hadn’t heard of her before, but I’ll remember her now. Thanks for posting! -- Robb |

Hi Dorje I had the luck of being taken there last fall by my MIL…she knew I would love it and I did not disappoint her. What an incredible amount of talent on display there…it was a very humbling and inspiring experience. I can’t wait for my next trip to Seattle to pass through their doors again…Tks for sharing it with everyone else. They list several woodworking schools on their site, do you know of one being better than the others? I am looking for a mentoring/learning opportunity. -- Splinters - Living and Loving life in the Rockies - http://www.splinterswoodworks.com/ |

Yes, it was inspiring to walk through the gallery. Next time we will need to plan even move time, so they don’t kick us out again :). It will be fun to go back and see what new creations they bring to the gallery. |

Splinters – I don’t know lot about the different schools…but, I have always admired Gary Rogowski’s work and he runs the NW woodworking school: http://www.northwestwoodworking.com/. It seems there are always a lot of great courses running and great instructors teaching there. Looks like they list a bunch of schools, small to larger, from California all the up the coast to B.C. You let us know the next time you’re in the area! Jeff – You better look us up! -- Dorje (pronounced "door-jay"), Seattle, WA |

Pam and I are considering a coastal run from San Fran, through Eugene/Springfield/Veneta and Portland ending in Seattle, our first real vacation of note since our honeymoon ten years ago. I definitely want to make a stop there! -- "Bordnerizing" perfectly good lumber for over a decade. |
