This Viewer Project comes from Margaret from Magnolia Works. Let’s hear what she has to say!

p1010017I decided to answer your challenge to build a Gadget Station. I built one in Greene & Greene style, designed after a lantern in the Gamble House in Pasadena, California. My Station is made of genuine mahogany with ebony accents. It has a layered stained glass panel in the door, glass shelves with 1/8” slots and stepped back panels for cord access. The drawer has vents in the bottom for air circulation and is sized for a surge protector. Thank you for your inspiration!

    Wonderful piece! I really enjoyed your website too. Nice classical guitar music!

    • Thank you, Gary for your kind words. During the day I teach middle school computer lab. One of my eighth grade students, Isaac Cerrato, created my music for me using GarageBand. I paid him, and he got an “A.”

    An attractive, original design. One would never guess it houses high-tech gear. I enjoyed your web site too. That workbench you built is prettier than my dining room table.
