Another famous NCww'er

[DaveO]

I was in Woodcraft the other day flipping through a back issue of Woodcraft magazine (Sept. 05') and ran across this picture in their show case of fine woodworking projects

Congratulations DavidF, that is a beautiful table and very worthy of being showcased in the magazine. Although the editors need to learn a little more about NC, they listed him as living in Apex:slap:.
Is seems that there hasn't been too many issues of that magazine that haven't had one of NCww'er's members showcased in some form or another...just goes to show what great talent we have here at home.

Sweet - congratulations David F! :icon_thum

 

[clowman]

Grats David!

 

[cskipper]

Excellent - glad you are getting the notoriety you deserve!

It is a work of art and David certainly deserves the praise. However, methinks he is currently 12,000 miles away in New Zealand. :eusa_shhh

Resounding envy of his craft and location,
Sapwood

I recall seeing your table in your gallery and spent a lot of time drooling over the workmanship and originality of the design!

Great Work!

Excellent work, David. Congratulations for the recognition!!!:icon_thum

 

[cpowell]

When I saw that table in the gallery I knew it was destined for greatness!!

Beautifully designed and built for sure.

 

[D L Ames]

Congrats on the recognition David.:icon_thum That table truly is a work of art. To bad the didn't include the custom matching beer mats you made following the same design. I hope your vacation down-under is going well for you.

Superb job of inlay and reverse tapered legs -- maybe that's what inspired him to travel down under! Great piece!

Congrats Dave. Feels good don't it. Keep an eye on the next issue. Might reconize something.:icon_thum

 

[Handturnedbowls]

Thats a piece that I would find irresistable not to touch if I was present in the same room with it. The design is really unique, I like it.

Nice work on all fronts David.

DavidF, you're back in the states. Hope you had a good trip down under. Now you can fess up to why you have never mentioned your moment of fame:eusa_naug
Great job and I am proud to say "Hey I know that guy" while I am looking through the magazine in the racks. Some how I feel like a better woodworker by association:roll: :roll: :lol:

Dave

 

[b4man]

Beautiful work! I ditto everything Dave said. You make us all proud to know you.

 

[DavidF]

Yes I'm back, which is good and bad I suppose:lol:
Great trip, wonderful country. You guys are way too generous with the praise! and I can't thank you all enough:eusa_clap

WG - yes it does feel good, makes it all worth while.....

Thanks again everybody.

 

[sapwood]

He's baccckkk! :eusa_clap

Not to worry, absolutely nothing happened in your absence :lol:

Did you learn to speak Kiwi? or Maori?


Envious of your craftsmanship and the trip,
Sapwood

 

[DavidF]

Neither - I was usually stuffing my face with good food and wine or a full english breakfast (the best in the world IMHO)

 

[Travis Porter]

Welcom back. You must have paid for the trip with the commission you got from the picture post in the magazine!:lol:

 

[Steve D]

Very nice David and it's good to have you back.
