Gary —

You are the Earl Scruggs of fine rocking chairs. The chair, the stool and table are all individually terrific and even better of a set. I had just gotten back from town and let the dogs out at the very moment the truck pulled up in front. The walnut rocker resides on its own dedicated Navajo rug where I can simultaneously rock, work the crossword puzzle, listen to Willies Roadhouse and keep an eye on the sheep. As with S.'s curly maple rocker, the little border terrier (Fergie, the Wonder Dog) likes to jump on my lap. When we rock she gets a huge grin on her face. Thanks again for the superb rockers, stool and table.

Just to let all there know that the chairs received numerous compliments on the selection and placement of grain patterns, as well as on their superior comfort. We would recommend them to anyone anywhere. Feel free to share our comments with potential future clients.

P.S. I told my 2 boys NOT to throw them out after I pass to the Great Beyond. Now they're trying to decide which 2 chairs to claim for themselves!
(all in good fun!)

All look great. Sorry I didn't tell you, but they're covered with quilts as the last bit of work is done. Thanks for your patience.
Beautiful functional art.

S.'s curly maple rocker arrived yesterday afternoon in good order and has been under commission since. If I could change one thing about it, I wouldn't, because it's genuinely perfect. The joinery, finish, and balance are all superb. Most of the highly sculpted rocking chairs I've seen seem frail, too overly wrought and unappealing in their oddness. There's nothing delicate about the build of this chair and it has just enough traditional elements to make it classic.

Can you make another in curly walnut? I will call next week.

Thanks again —

Gary,

We received the delivery without any issues. Thank you for the wonderful rocker. The first thing we noticed was just how soft the wood felt — it is buttery to the touch! The size of the chair is perfect (it fit through our narrow hallways and doorways without an issue), and it looks amazing in our nursery. The rocker is a perfect addition to our home, and our baby is already starting to enjoy its soothing. The rocker is exactly what we wanted, and we look forward to enjoying it for years to come.

Thank you again for your quick responses, professional service, and amazing craftsmanship. I've already passed your name along to a friend looking for a rocker. And, rest assured that I will come calling again if (when) we need another!

Best Regards,
R.

Gary,

The rocker arrived yesterday, unharmed from its long journey from Texas. Even the box it was shipped in looked good: Some child, either at your end or en route, decorated the box with crayon drawings of a butterfly and a ladder!

The rocker looks great in our 1850 schoolhouse home, and the pleasure I get from sitting in it is almost embarrassing. The wood is so sensuous to touch, and I sit transfixed by the little "flaws" in the grain, which stare back at me like little eyes. For me, sitting in it is both relaxing and energizing. I can lean my head against the back and hold a cup of coffee in my lap, the chair arms beveled perfectly for that restful position, but soon I find that I'm rocking slightly, and that gets me to thinking . . . and then to a sense of "OK, there's work to be done." Even a little rocking energizes my legs.

We're going to have a bunch of visitors today, and I can't wait to have them "have a sit."

You've created a beautiful piece of work that I am grateful to own.

We received the maple rocker on Friday. It is both a museum piece and a perfectly functional piece of furniture. Thanks! One note. While this rocker was not harmed (a slight roughness on the bottom of one rocker in a short stretch), the bubble wrap had worn through at the very bottom of the chair and the wood of the rocker had been rubbing on the cardboard. No problem for us, but I wanted you to know. The outside of the box was perfect. Thanks again.
