A GIFT FOR PHILIP
June 7, 2007
This is a picture of a deck built by Shannan Collins, his daughter and son. The deck was built as a gift for their 14 year old nephew.
Here is the letter he Shannan sent to us:
Norah,
Well we finished our first board and I’ve attached a few pics as you requested.
My son (7) and daughter (9) built it with me as a gift for my 14 year old nephew. The kids mainly did the gluing, operated the vacuum press (because it is so easy), and assembly of hardware (with help from Dad). We ship it to our nephew tomorrow and we hope he likes his new ride!
The top and bottom layers are all marquetry, using mahogany, pear, maple, cherry, and black dyed popular (i think but not sure). Turcks are ExKate 201, Bones Red bearings, and ExKate 70mm Easy Rider wheels. We titled this piece “Philips Phish”.
Hope you enjoy the pics as much as we enjoyed making #1. We have 3 more to build now.
Regards,
Shannan Collins
