back in business!
My gosh! This move has been a doozy. It's still a mess, but we're all on cloud 10, now that all equipment has been moved into place, wired up, dust collector collecting, and as of this morning the fan to our new finishing room (almost complete) powered up and fanning. Lots more work to do organizing all areas - woodworking, gallery, photo shoot suite and more, but for now we are back in business, trying to get caught up a several projects that we are a bit behind on.
We have several huge, exciting plans lined up for the new studio in Lexington. You should be hearing more by early/mid Spring.
For now, nothing but smiles now that we are back in business!

Florence Alabama - The South's best Arts and Design town
My buddy Grace Fox just sent a link to the current Garden and Gun. Well, we've all known this for decades. But it's really fun to see that the world is getting it as well. With all the movies, musicians, artists, restaurants, forward thought, creativity, and awesome energy, it's a really fun place to "be".
And, it was nice to see a little mention as well:
“Though their mediums vary, there is a commonality in the work of Florence artists, who have all found inspiration in the place’s history and land. Robin Wade takes downed trees and builds furniture that is at once rustic and modern, letting the trees speak for themselves, wormholes and all. ”
Phil Campbell Kickstarter campaign has launched!
After year's in the planning, it's wonderful to see the launch of the Phil Campbell Kickstarter campaign! Honestly, I don't know much about Kickstarter (although I have minimally supported one successful campaign previously.

Steve Murray, Director Museum of Alabama
A few comments from Steve Murray, Director of Museum of Alabama during this past weekends Grand Grand Opening ceremony in Montgomery.
This chair is not comfortable. But this guy seems to really think it is!
I designed this chair. Tried it out. Have had multiple friends try it out only to laugh! BUt this guy recommends it.
Museum Grand Opening, one visitor not impressed
What fun we had last weekend in Montgomery. Many new friends. A few new fans i think. But, let me say that not all at our showing were "impressed".
