A Bubinga rocker and matching table

[nclemmons]

sorry for not responding earlier (milo harvest and whatnot), but thank you all for the comments! I originally built this piece to take to craft shows along with another walnut rocker that has some different characteristics, but everything is always for sale. Also Neil I'm pretty much jealous of you for getting to meet Sam. From what i've heard he was a great craftsman and an even better person.

thanks again!

Sam was a gracious and kind man.  Had dinner one evening with he and his wife and it was one of the highlights of my woodworking experiences.  If you ever get a chance, take a tour of his place outside LA.  His studio and shop are amazing.

Interestingly, his rockers at the time I took his class (30 years ago) were selling for around $5000 as I recall.  Should have put money down on one!
