Volume I Issue 001
Two tables open the first issue: a hickory top built from boards that refuse to match, and a salvaged door kept intact beneath glass. Alongside them, the joint that holds most of our work together, where the material comes from, and how much room a dining table actually needs. Then the numbers behind a walnut dining table, and what plays in the shop while it gets built.
