SAPFM Presentation at the Detroit Institute of Art - Working Wood in the 18th Century

Well it was back to Detroit this weekend for a presentation by the Great Lakes Chapter of the SAPFM at the Detroit Institute of Art on working wood in the 18th century.  I had a great time and met a lot of wonderful people who came to the museum to learn a little about how things got done in the 18th century.  We were set up in the grand foyer with a furniture display and demonstrations.

I brought my turret top tea table and the walnut Chippendale chair.
