Just watched the video. What a treasure to be allowed into the studios and homes of Nakashima, narrated by his daughter and grandson. Thanks for posting the link.

Ah, that brought back pleasant memories. About 15 years ago a small group of us (Bucks Woodturners) were given a tour of the property and some of the buildings by Mira. I remember having to remove our shoes to enter some of them. Impressive !!! And, the wood storage barn ... Wow! Enough beautiful wood in there to last all of us attending woodturners & woodworkers several lifetimes.

That is amazing!
Road trip?

George Nakashima was the father of the single slab table. His work is timeless and now sells for many times the original price. There is no comparison between his work and some of today’s tables that are sometimes 50% plastic / epoxy.
