James Krenov – 1920 -2009
Legendary woodworker and author James Krenov passed away yesterday. He was eighty-nine.
He inspired many through the College of the Redwoods furniture program that he founded in 1981, as well as through his many books including A Cabinetmaker’s Notebook, The Fine Art of Cabinetmaking and The Impractical Cabinetmaker.
He created a unique style of furniture that in building one’s own has become a rite of passage for many woodworkers. You can see examples here at The James Krenov Official Website
It is a sad, sad day for all…
