Won't You Sit and Stay A While? There is a new piece taking shape in the shop, a Nakashema and shaker style inspired bench. The progress has been s-l-o-w, hampered by a lot of starts and stops. However, it’s progress and I, have much time to sit and think along the way. The bench seat preparation has taken a lot longer th
