Where does the time go?  Can’t believe it is the last day of September, just last week was Christmas, wasn’t it?
Hectic here at the shop, lot’s of computer work and trying to keep up with everything in the shop as well.  The cabinets were delivered yesterday so one more project down.  I believe we are [...]

Well, it’s almost 2pm and I just got Charles’ blog posted….whew!  30+ photos today as he had finished the cabinet set he has been working on and they are on the way to their new home in West Virginia.
Hi Charles!  Hi George!  I received a telephone call this morning reminding me that I wasn’t blogging [...]

Hey Everyone, guess some of you have missed me as I have received a few emails and comments asking where am I!  I’m here, just so darn busy trying to keep up with everything.  That’s good news because that means that so many of you are now active with our blogs, videos, DVD sales, etc.

Whew!  Just finished fighting with the web site, but I won.
Now that gift giving season is getting into full swing, I’ve received emails from many of you asking if we offered gift certificates as you have some DVDs on your want list.  So, this morning I did some work and made gift certificates available.  There [...]

Good Morning – I think. Just walked through the workshop or might I say stumbled through the workshop!
I guess I’ll get out there and try and do some cleaning today, if not….I may lose Charles in the mess!
Just recently I learned what an RSS feed is and have made this option available on our video [...]

September 13, 2008 – Glazing Glass Panes

It’s Saturday and I like to get out of here by 2pm, doesn’t look like I’ll make it today. As you know, Charles is finishing the step back for delivery to the client tomorrow. I’m the official glass pane glazer around here, have been for years so I’ve got 15 of them to get in. [...]

Here it is 3:00 in the afternoon and I’m just finishing up my morning tasks…oh well.  Got a late start after running into town to pick up the antique glass panes that were cut for the step back.  Lucky me, I get to glaze in 15 panes tomorrow after the doors are dry enough to [...]

Last night, my 12 year-old granddaughter “interviewed” me for a homework assignment. She had three questions:
1. Where were you when you heard of the terrorist attack?
2. Do you think things have changed for our country since the attack?
3. Do you feel you have personally been challenged because of the terrorist attack.
Good questions….maybe today is a [...]

It’s Wednesday afternoon and all is well at The Workshop of Charles Neil!
The bubinga island top is absolutely breath taking.  I don’t know if you have been following the blog but I sure wish everyone could see it up close.  Charles has worked with Bubinga slabs many times, here are some photos of a bubinga [...]

I love the early morning hours when I can get to the shop and really make a dent in my agenda for the day.  I’ve changed the quote, changed the video player for today and rotated all of the sponsor banners on all of the players. 
The voting for our next project video is going okay, [...]
