    Very nice Alex, great work on display there. How did the burl drawer faces work out over time, any movement?

    Thanks Groggy. I wouldn't think there was any significant movement (the piece was sold pretty well straight away) as they were quite small, and the burl was pretty solid.
    I used most of the burl for an inlaid panel in a box, and had a small amount left over, that was too nice to throw away.

    Just a comment.
    You wont get many hits except from here, the name of the site is all wrong, it is directing us to a mac site.

    Buy a domain name and your hits will increase.

    Alex, a perfect website you have, showing that you are a man with passion for wood. I enjoyed it to look to your own designed furniture.
    Really great work.

    Alex

    Your work is well displayed and beautiful as always.

    However, you must ask yourself "what is the purpose of this site?"

    If the answer is in any way commercial, then there are things that need to be done.

    Rather than spout off here, send me a PM, buy me a beer, and I can maybe help, commercial aspect only, you leave me for dead in terms of craftmanship.

    Nice site Alex. My only comment is, and I am prepared to be howled down, is that for a commercial site is the first page image the correct one. Maybe one or two images from your gallery rather than some tools that may not mean anything to many viewers. Remember, the first page has to catch a viewers attention and make them want to know more. However, the gallery pieces are just great.

If he gets it without working for it; he's a parasite; and if he accumulates it after a life time of hard work, people call him a fool who never got anything out of life."
