Young Woodworker Of The Year

St. Louis furniture designer Martin Goebel was named 2014’s Young Woodworking Professional of the Year. (We’ve highlighted Goebel’s stunning work on Modern Midwest before.) The design that won over the panel was the pictured table, featuring classic timber frame construction with some ship-building influences at work.

The top is created from World War II surplus, aircraft-grade Sugar pine, purchased at auction from a 103 year old Pipe Organ company which was re-tooled during WW II for military component production. Martin’s Goebel Furniture was previously featured in Scott Wunder’s blog. – See more at: http://www.woodworkingnetwork.com/young-woodworking-professionals/2014-Young-Woodworking-Professional-of-the-Year-Martin-Goebel-275510651.html#sthash.4JpHjLz5.KCmtuqe5.dpuf
