SadlerBootwerk: September 2014
http://sadlerbootwerk.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Woodwork, barges, lasers, optimists and anything else that might cross my path. Wednesday, September 24, 2014. Claudia, queen of cupboards, has started work on the next row of six for a wall in the upstairs bedroom. This is in the house where we recently placed the office furniture. The walnut office table will go in next Monday after its last coat of varnish is dry and hardened. Wednesday, September 17, 2014. Last week we assembled the painted oak wall cupboards and trial fitted the walnut table top.

SadlerBootwerk: January 2015
http://sadlerbootwerk.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Woodwork, barges, lasers, optimists and anything else that might cross my path. Saturday, January 24, 2015. Two inches of snow greeted man and dog this morning but with the temperature already above freezing it'll be gone by teatime. Wednesday, January 14, 2015. No job too small. First delivery of 2015. A single oak plank, sawn, planed, jointed, then glued up for stability as it is on it's way to a bathroom. Monday, January 5, 2015. Reitdiep, last day of 2014. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). No job too small.

SadlerBootwerk: Lowering the mast
http://sadlerbootwerk.blogspot.com/2014/12/lowering-mast.html
Woodwork, barges, lasers, optimists and anything else that might cross my path. Sunday, December 28, 2014. One of the things that Claudia insisted on when contemplating a loading mast, was that it had to be able to be lowered in a few minutes - just like Antoon aboard m.s. Nynke - and raised just as easily. Here is the proof that I have, as always, listened to her every word. Now we are ready to leave early next morning, out of Groningen to escape the fireworks. Fir thwarts for Kees.

SadlerBootwerk: March 2015
http://sadlerbootwerk.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Woodwork, barges, lasers, optimists and anything else that might cross my path. Tuesday, March 24, 2015. Though the method of construction is the same, the result is surprisingly different, there being something about a piece of furniture made from solid wood that a plywood piece just doesn't have. The work has to be done very precisely, which is why Claudia is working on this with her Festool tools and I am aboard a barge. Tuesday, March 10, 2015. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

SadlerBootwerk: April 2014
http://sadlerbootwerk.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Woodwork, barges, lasers, optimists and anything else that might cross my path. Tuesday, April 22, 2014. Things cooking in my kitchen. Maybe we'll have a fridge and be able to do the washing up in Medemblik next weekend. Monday, April 14, 2014. 2 cubic metres of German oak. For a marvelous cabinet project in Beilen we have bought 2 cubic metres of German oak. To turn in into planks who better than a couple of 'Tischler' (German carpenters) and one large German saw. Thanks, Mario and Houke. Here the two p...

Woodwork, barges, lasers, optimists and anything else that might cross my path. Wednesday, April 29, 2015. The lovely little luxe motor ‘Gudrun’ has six windows in the rear cabin. Each barge has it’s own details and solutions so to avoid making mistakes before starting to saw the expensive Guariuba for these opening windows I will make a seventh one from bits of pine.

SadlerBootwerk: November 2014
http://sadlerbootwerk.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Woodwork, barges, lasers, optimists and anything else that might cross my path. Saturday, November 29, 2014. While waiting for the paint to dry in Beilen we have started work on a small kitchen project that will end up in a little house on the island of Schiermonnikoog. Next week the client is coming to do the varnishing work on the cupboards and solid wood and the Italian stone man, Giulio Stefano, is coming round to measure up for a granite worktop.

SadlerBootwerk: May 2014
http://sadlerbootwerk.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Woodwork, barges, lasers, optimists and anything else that might cross my path. Friday, May 23, 2014. Claudia dances on the table. Not strictly true, but sounds good. Claudia spent a large part of the day on hands and knees, rough-cutting sheets of 18mm beech plywood for cupboards. Wednesday, May 21, 2014. Just a little live-edged maple table but to me it almost looks like it's blinking. Or maybe it is asleep? Monday, May 19, 2014. Wednesday, May 14, 2014. I had a book once. Thanks again, Suze and Wim.
