Ironically I have been constantly referring to your Trestle table article (and occasionally checking out Chris’s article) while I make 3 of the tables.
I hope this means we can expect another book from you and catch you at some of the woodworking shows again.
Good Luck

Can I have your bench?

I have taken a course from you on shker furniture at Woodcraft Store in Dayton. I enjoyed it immensely. Will you be teaching any couses there again?

If not, is there any way I could learn from you either with private lessons and projects or by e-mail?

I think you are the greatest and a lot of fun to work with.

Could you please let me know the answers to these questions by e-mail. My e-mail address is msarnovsky@columbus.rr.com

Very respectfully,

Mike Sarnovsky ( a great fan of yours).

Best of luck in your new endeavor. I truly enjoyed meeting you and participating in your classes at last years WIA. PWM editors are so much easier to get to know that other WW magazines I subscribe to, but you are very personable. We’ll miss you and look forward to your contributing articles. I have really enjoyed your projects and especially the Finishes that Pop book. Keep in touch when you can.

I know that I’ll miss you at some of the things that you attended for PW, but I’m sure we’ll still be in touch. I’ll also admit that I’m more than jealous of you getting to spend more time in the shop.

I know I am a better woodworker for it.

When I needed help making pine look like really old walnut, I e-mailed Glen, and he told me about aniline dyes. When I needed help figuring out when and how to use shellac, and how to cut it myself, I e-mailed Glen. And this was just before finishes that POP was released, (which I bought). Aniline dyes and shellac are now my go to finish. Lets not forget the boiled linseed oil either… I love that stuff.

Even though I am a hand tool guy, the first thing I do with any PWM is find what Glen made, read it up down and sideways, and then try to tell my wife how much we need one of them. I love reproduction stuff, so I am drawn to his pieces. And I have even made a few using his directions. Barrister book case, Coffee table, Spice cabinet, Inlaid bible box, and I am in process of trying to justify a tea caddy…. who am I kidding, I don’t have to justify it, Glen already did… that’s good enough for me, and when I am done that, maybe she will let me make a Baltimore Card table.

Glen, I wish you all the best in the future, and I thank you for all the emails and help that you have given.
