Hi Gary,
Hope you, your family and staff are in good health and happy in your work.
It is a small world. Last summer found me in Las Vegas attending the Wood Industry convention sourcing additional c-n-c equipment. During a seminar debating implementing or not implementing automation and the fabricating preferences of craftsmen I heard your name and business coincidentally referenced. All I can says is that your work was highly spoken of among your peers… I would conclude you are famous for your craftsmanship… and would agree.
Back to A., believe me I am equally glad to have acquired one of these unique rockers!The beautiful wood and the chair’s lines are absolutely gorgeous.The chair’s design is the most comfortable in our entire home.I’ll enjoy it again tonight.
Sincerely
R. C.San Antonio, Texas

Yes, Gary! We received it and opened it this morning. It. Is. Beautiful! I had to sit in it just to see what all the fuss was about and he’s right, most comfortable chair ever. Everything about it is done right…down to the felt on the bottom so it isn’t scratching up a wood floor.
So yes, all is very very well and rocking. With one exception, I don’t have one of my own. Yet. 😊

Gary, Yes the rocker arrived in great condition and E. and N. and their five month-old son love it. This will likely be a family heirloom. Thank you and your team.-J

Hi Gary,
Thanks for the follow-up. The chair was a surprise for my wife - she was very pleased that we can both have a sit-down on the porch in the evening while the weather is still nice up here.

Yes, they did. Everything is good. The walnut was the perfect choice. It was all we were hoping for.

Dear Gary,
We love the chair, the packaging, and service. We are already working on designing a table for you to make.

Hi Gary,
I did receive the rocking chair, just when you said it would come. And the delivery person was very pleasant and helpful. I rock in it almost every evening. It is my "let it be" chair.
It seems each time I sit in it I find something else to like about it. Just the other night I discovered if I turn a little and hang one leg over the arm I can use the edge of the back support slats and the rocking motion to massage my back. Aaah. I don't have any problems with my tailbone resting on the seat, which is a nice surprise. I especially like that the slats in the back leave a spot for my spine right in the middle, that there's room for me to tuck my feet underneath, and that it rocks pretty far without ever feeling unstable. And it's absolutely beautiful.
I almost hate to give any non-positive feedback, because it might make you think I enjoy my chair less or expect you to do anything about this stuff. But you seem like you might appreciate it... So this is just for your information; no need to respond.
- The bottom of the shipping box was very dirty - that black greasy dirt that sticks to things. If I had carpet instead of hardwood floors I would probably have had to clean the carpet afterwards.
- I find that resting my arms on the arm rests isn't all that comfortable. I'm not sure why. They feel a little too high and far away from my body. I am about average height for a woman (5'-7") but I think I have long arms for my height. And I'm on the slender side. In fact it's more comfortable for me to tuck my elbows through the back of the chair and put my hands on the seat next to my behind.
Last night my good friend M. came over and spent some time in the rocking chair. She's had a difficult few weeks and she really seemed to find the rocking chair soothing. She also thought it was beautiful.
Thank you for building such a functional and beautiful piece! It is a joy to have it in my life.
Thanks,
C.D.
