Mike  builds  high quality custom furniture in the Arts and Crafts style. He does reproductions and designs original work with a heavy Stickley, Limbert, and Macintosh influence. If you are shopping, you should contact him for a quote. He will build and finish to your needs. Plus he is a nice guy.

Wordpress resolves the addresses differently. You will need to remark the site in your RSS reader. If you have any advice for a Wordpress novice I would appreciate it.

I want better categorization. So be patient.

Buy my neighbor’s house.
Originally uploaded by gizmodyne

My neighbor’s house has been a rental for years. It is finally for sale. They are asking $590,000 but I bet you can work something out.

It actually has some great details but needs exterior paint, a garage, a driveway and lots of TLC.

Bonus. You get to live in historic Bungalow Heaven next to a guy who will help you with house projects. Plus we are quiet.

Write me for the listing. I get no cut, I just want to live next to nice people.

The meal was followed by a little homemade limoncello courtesy of my friend Erin.

The “Stickley” Table seated ten! I love this shot of the family sitting around the table, with the box beams above.

index.gif I made this tutorial a few years ago in my M.A. program. I find it silly now. It is a tutorial to teach the basics of bungalow style. The assignment required a quiz. Check it out.

Zoho-Projects
Originally uploaded by gizmodyne

For those of you house restoration geeks who are also computer geeks. (You know you are…Hint ….you are reading a blog right now.)

Zoho is an online documents package similar to google docs, but offering a useful project management software. The free version allows only one project.

Here is how I use it:

1. Create milestones for the different sections of my house. Example: Kitchen to be finished by August 24.

2. Add tasks with their own to do dates to the milestone list: Cabinet doors.

3. Add sub tasks to the the task.: Stain, Hang, Install Hardware.

You can view all of your tasks on a calendar, set up the program to email you when tasks are overdue, and view your to-do’s anywhere you have web access.

The pay version allows you to have multiple users. Then you can assign others tasks. If you are restoring a bungalow you are probably a control freak and won’t need this feature. Just walk that lonely road.

This is funny. Sorry Hipsters

If you have actually been to this location, it is miles of asphalt with a view of the Ralph’s parking lot on one side and the 210 on the other.

Boutiques? (Does the 99 cent store count?)

Saunter to the news stand? Nobody saunters on Lake. It’s Hell hot.
