Well summer is in full swing……………………….

Monday, July 5th, 2010

It’s kind of a joke to call it summer in South Florida as it’s seemed like summer since the end of March. Summer though, really starts at the Fourth of July. Here in S. Fla. the weather cooperated nicely for me to enjoy a nice long weekend in the studio. It was dark and rainy the whole weekend.

I’m working on two new projects that should be ready to photograph this week. One is a new Wauli hook and the other is a new version of the Wauli Shelf/Rack. I didn’t expect the first one to sell so quickly but it did. It was fabricated from scraps so I probably won’t be making one just like it again.

I found time to finish a project I started last summer at Penland:

Anyway, that’s it for today. As Victor Cheng says with regards to marketing through your blog. ……….. keep it up.”  So that’s my goal for the rest of the summer.

 

See you soon!

Cheers,

Paul

The end of January finds me back in the studio working on some fun things.

Right now I’m working on the ever present growing family of Wauli’s. Those things have taken on a life of their own. I’ve got multiple Wauli hooks, so far up to eight places and the ever popular single Wauli’s. Both are being offered in enamel and powder coat. I might have to quit my regular job…. hahaaha

 A project that has rally gotten me back to doing what I really love and that’s two office desks. With the economy the way it is, it’s great to see a small company growning. That growth tho, doesn’t mean that there is a big budget. So, with a little time and scrap materials and a few new ones, I’m building a couple of desks for a local company. I get to do the design and fabrication. Heaven!
