    I found some joinery that I made many years ago

    in General Discussions

    Nigel Bird was a regular customer to the joinery I worked in, and he became a good friend. He supplied us with a big contract to Thomas Cooke in London, and as I made most of the cabinet work it became my project. During the week I made the units and at the weekend I would go with the site carpenter and fit everything. I earned some excellent money. While surfing for Nigel Bird architect I discovered this page ref Thomas Cooke, and it brought back some happy memories, I made and fitted most of the furniture. Nigel Bird Architects

    Nice. Is that some of your work there in that photo?

    In the Thomas Cooke photographs, I made everything, it was either Cherry or American white oak. I had to frame up some Lalique glass panels from the original Orient Express, and they were badly distorted. Not being a site chippy I only helped with the fitting of it.

    Impressive! I did some woodworking in my teens. Perhaps I should have been a carpenter.

    I'm actually a qualified wood machinist, we are the ones who are often the Joiners. Carpenters are more likely to use hand tools and work on site rather than in a joinery assembling things. I once had a vicar, who was a customer, tell me that a very important person was a carpenter. I said, "Do you mean Harrison Ford"

    @Dave Sutton - Ah, well, I did wood shop in both high school and at a camp that I attended. I carved names using a band saw, made a plaque that said, "Tabb Tigers", made a small wooden box with a hinged lid and did a few other odds and ends. I think I missed the Harrison Ford joke.

    @David Lazarus It actually happened to me, and I had to stop and think a little before I realized he was talking about Jesus. I was tempted to comment about Harrison Ford, who was a carpenter but refrained from doing so.
