    I have not done anything in the Roycrofters style, but my wife and I visited the Roycrofters site in Upstate N.Y. and saw some interesting things. On the to do list, but that is a rather full list.

    Oh, Id been there too, in east aurora, ny - it was near where my MIl lived at one time. A beautiful place (I think the campus/building burned a little while back and they didnt rebuild it - cost too much).
    I had a rocker and huge desk that was a real craftsmen when I was in HS. The neighbor was hauling it to the dump (too old fashioned - they wanted all that mod 60s spindley metal legged stuff!) and asked if I wanted it first since I babysat for them.
    I had it in my rm thru college then got married and moveed away for a yr and someone talked my mom into giving it to them. She didnt think Id mind since it was so old - "your grandmothers had that stuff! why would you want that old stuff in your house?" :thumbdown: :thumbdown:
