KILBY COURT / SEPTEMBER 2010

About once a year I attempt to tackle the Kilby Court calendar all by myself without the help of my lovely design partner Sarah Martin. I try to have fun with it and hopefully that shows. One of my favorite things about September is the Utah Fair.. so that was my inspiration. Also, who doesn't love banners?

1937 Delta 24″ De-luxe Scroll Saw. Check out T.K. Smith Design blog.

OMG, so nerdy but I love this scroll saw. Haha.

Speaking of which, school started back up yesterday. Sigh. It's going to be a tough semester but I'm excited. We're remodeling this guy's kitchen cabinets in his giant Saratoga Springs home. Frankly, the kitchen is crap - but we're going to make it beautiful!
We got a new table saw in the shop. It's a Saw Stop and if you haven't seen this youtube video, you have to check it out. I WILL NEVER CUT OFF MY FINGERS ON A TABLE SAW! YAY!

Standard Made - Adam Rogers

It shouldn't be any secret that I love furniture. So why don't I ever write about the furniture I love? A few months ago I came across the work of a fella' named Adam Rogers.









DROOL.
His work is amazing. I love how classic his furniture feels, yet there is something so unique about it. And goodness, look at that joinery.

We've got a lot of projects happening/or about to happen at the ol' apartment. I'm refinishing a great mid-century Baumritter New York lounge chair at the moment. I'll do a post on that when I'm finished. I'm taking my sweet time with this one though. I got it at Savers for $7 - no cushions or webbing though, just bare, lovely bones.

Guys! I'll be sharing a table with Emily Moroz at the Alt Press Fest TODAY at the downtown library, 3 - 9. I've got a new mini-comic printed up called Collect. It is a small collection of my comics, including some old favorites - Beer Facial and Winter Legs, and some never printed ones from the vault! Stop by!
