n Memory of

1946-1989

Roland Wolf, art director of Fine Woodworking and creator

of much of the finest artwork we've published in the last

seven years, died last December, following an apparent

heart attack. We will all miss his extraordinary talent, his

good humor and his friendship. In gratitude for all he

shared with us and the readers over the years, we dedicate

this issue, the last one he worked on, to him.

to start with. And as far as critiCizing him for using power tools

for everything, I like it that way. At 57 years old and riddled with

arthritis in the hands, I don't ind woodworking easy. Power

tools help me a lot. Besides, I don't expect to be building furni

ture at [Colonial] Williamsburg. I can do many things by hand,

but come on, it's a real drag. Just look at what these dovetail jigs

can do. When I build something, I want to inish it sometime this

year. The only thing missing in the show is a big lazy pooch

laying on the floor. I love the show, I can almost smell the

sawdust from here. -John McDonnell, Hawthoe, NJ.

#75), I have been lattered by a number of amateur woodwork

ers who have contacted me to let me know how much pleasure

they've had imitating my boxes for their loved ones.

I've also been ofended by a few would-be-professionals who

have tried to pick my brain to put my design into production.

These boxes are a big part of my income and fetch an excellent

price, based on originality of design and a fine finish. I pub

lished those plans to share an idea I was proud of and enjoyed

and to be an inspiration to my peers. I didn't expect my idea to

be ripped of by small-time operators without the gumption or

intelligence to find their own marketable ideas.

A Souhener joins wih a Ykee-Norm Abrams presens his

version of uniture pieces that an be used in the modern home

yet relect something of the past. I have some old cabinets in an

old shop that are better looking than the old Shaker pieces on the

program, yet I would not put them in my house or present them

to a riend. I am a real amateur at

oo rking and I an under

sand the pride of completing a reprduction of fine uniture. This

is not what the program is about. The program is about building

presenable pieces of urniture in the home workshop. I think he

does an outstanding job of presenting the projects. I have learned

many things in the five or six programs I have atched. Norm is

not trying to give a safety lesson on each program, even though

there are imprints on the screen when guards are removed.

order. Here is a man that has given each of us a lit. I'm tired of

turning on the tube and seeing the same old junk on every chan

I have not met Norm, but I would like to. I feel that he is a

down-to-earth person who enjoys his work and enjoys contribut

ing his knowledge to us-a bunch of amateurs. This is unusual

and very nice in this day and time. Another thing-this is the age

of power tools. Thanks Norm for helping me build things with

them that I didn't have the knowledge to build before.

-Robert D. Walton, Manfiel,

t ea h er -Norm is a great teacher. He allows a

wonderful, rich pathway to inspire and motivate young people

with the "you-can-do-it" attitude. You have to pay your dues at

your crat and you have to start somewhere.

The book and video have excellent production values; the

projects are interesting and the techniques are wonderul.

John McAlvey's reference to too much use of power tools is

ridiculous. Chippendale and Sheraton would have used power

equipment for their production work

but he has to work fast. It ges without saying that when you are

doing it, the thing will e done slower and with a little more are.

I can't wait for him to come on television. Yes, you could say

there are an awful lot of esoteric furniture builders out there

who will look down on him. And most of them are thinking

about the money he is making with the show and his tapes, and

that is possibly what hurts most of these pros. I can't speak for

everybody, but I get sick and tired of hearing "put on your safety

glasses," "put on your ear muffs," "don't get near the blade" and

all the rest of it. Your God-given sense should have told you that
