gary,

I am enjoying the rocker, as it is validates all your claims. I waited out the return period just to be certain a wood chair could possibly provide so much support and comfort. initially, the temptation to keep it just for the beauty of the design entered my mind.

I assume that by virtue of my decision to keep the rocker, I can trash the box.

enjoyed doing business with you. my back thanks you as well.

happy new year,

Gary,

Your wonderful rocker just arrived. The most comfortable I've ever sat in plus a pleasure to look at.
I'm very pleased with it — Thank you.

Merry Christmas to you and God bless you, your family, and your friends.

Hi Gary,

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit as well, and also the tour of your workshop; thank you for spending a little time with us! The chair has already found its rightful place in the living room where I sit in it every morning for coffee and every evening for TV watching. Truly the most comfortable rocker I've ever sat in! Thank you again.

Blessings,

Hello Everyone —

Just wanted to let my whole family know that the wonderful gift you gave me on my birthday arrived at our home yesterday. It came on a truck and was boxed as if it was the lost ark from "Raiders". Once opened, I knew why. Truly, it is now the most beautiful piece of furniture we have in our home or in Willowbrook for that matter. I've never seen such a work of art like this chair. You can tell that someone spent an awful lot of time and effort into creating such a piece. It's absolutely beautiful, and as comfortable as a leather sofa. Thank-You all very, very much. I can¹t wait to sit in it as I watch A. pace back and forth in the room to try and get the baby to sleep!

Thanks Again,
J.

Hi Gary,

Yes, everything arrived in time for the Thanksgiving break. I don't really know what to say except everything is just great. The nicely figured seats on the Rocker and the Harris stool are a special treat. People who have been over to the house and have seen the furniture are just as speechless as I am. I just can't believe how comfortable it is each time I sit in it. Most folks have never seen (and unfortunately most never will see) such well crafted furniture. Luckily for some of us, you have figured out how to make and sell these items at a price that is accessible – a remarkable value for the price. Lastly, I have to comment on the Otwell side table with shelf — I think it is a real beauty and perfectly proportioned. My wife says that "it's just perfect" (it is located on her end of the couch).

Thank you and your team for the fine furniture,
N.

I'm so sorry I didn't get to beat you to the punch with an email . . .
The rocker arrived safe and sound and it's beautiful!!! J. just loves it!
I stopped to see it the other day and it was better than I had hoped.
J.'s wife who is 7 months pregnant found it very comfortable!!
You have been wonderful to work with and we were all so pleased to give our brother a 50th birthday gift he could cherish forever, and use daily!
Take care, and Merry Christmas to you and your family!

Thanks for the email, Gary. Very much enjoying the chair. Beautiful piece. Lovely where it sits in the most prominent spot in our house and comfortable to boot. Thanks for your very careful and precise work. I enjoy it every time I look at the chair. Haven't gotten that first ding just yet. I know it's coming, but for now it still looks like it just came from the shop.

Nap of the rug sends it North a bit, but that's OK.

The whole event inspired me to get my shop back in order. Spent most of Thanksgiving on that project. Had a great time and rediscovered all that stuff I have. I'm not fully back in business yet, but the shop is functional again. Just to prove it I finished a chair I had been neglecting for literally a couple of years.

Looking forward to coming out and visiting again.

Best,
A.

Gary, this my latest project using curly maple. Hope you like it. The rocker does not compare to the comfort of the chairs you and Austin make.

Hi Gary,

I received the chair yesterday and it gathered lots of spectators at work! We were able to fit it in my hatchback for transit home and it's found a temporary home in the middle of our nursery until I can move a bookshelf out of the way. It is just stunning and rocks like a dream. Our little "Peach" (her name for now) and I had a nice rock and read last night before bed. I enjoyed Bela's artwork on the crate lid also, please let her know. Thank you for your work and care in providing us with such a beautiful chair!

More soon,

Gary,

The rocker arrived when it was supposed to with all well, complete with Wiley Mae's art work which made the box the envy of the neighborhood. I arrived (also all well) slightly later than expected and we finally unpacked the rocker late yesterday. It is both beautiful and comfortable and has gotten a lot of rocking in not very many hours. We love it and it looks fabulous in its new home.

Thank you so much!
