A Visit From Andy Chidwick~Fine Furniture Maker
Thursday, December 23, 2010 at 1:50PM Last night I was quite pleased to have another professional woodworker, Andy Chidwick, stop by the shop for a visit. Andy & his family have just started their tour with The Woodworking Shows where he shares his knowledge by giving demonstrations and lectures.
Andy is a talented furniture maker and designer, he builds a variety of sculptured furniture which includes, but is not limited to, the Maloof style. Andy also has a woodworking school in western Montana, the Chidwick School of Fine Woodworking.
But rather than tell you about his trip and The WoodWorking Shows, I will let him share it with you in a video we made during his visit to my shop.
To see Andy Chidwick give a demonstration or lecture be sure to check out thewoodworkingshows.com for locations and schedules. Not only is he a talented furniture maker, but he is also a talented instructor and all-around nice guy. I hope you get a chance to meet him and see his work.

Wish I had been there.. or could attend one of the shows.. It all sounds fantastic... I know a little about being part of a woodwork show here in Australia but I think to be there in America would be great....
Great interview, Todd! I'm hoping he can swing through here on his way back home. I'm assuming Portland is one of his last stops.
