You can still hop over to Neil’s blog site and check out his
videos and articles. He did a great
series of videos on a Carlo Mollino inspired table that is still one of my
favorite online videos. I think I’ve
gone back and watched it three times over the years. Today I wanted to share a video Neil did with
famed furniture designer and sculptor, Wendell Castle. It’s always interesting to hear directly from
people who are considered masters of their craft, yet part of what makes this
interview so fun is the experience that you can see Neil having. He’s so appreciative to be sitting across
from one of his heroes and you can just see it in his face. Enjoy this two part interview with an icon of
design…
Be sure to poke around the rest of Neil’s posts too. He put a lot of great content up on
woodworking and design over the years.
Amazon is going to get some business from me today. Neil recommended a couple books to me and I’ve
had them on the wish list for a while now.
Time to pull the trigger and dig into some design history and
philosophy.
RIP Neil. We’ll all
miss you.

Hello,
I watched Neil's interview with Wendell Castle many years ago and loved it. The link doesn't seem to work any more. Have you been able to find them? I hope they are not lost forever.

Hey Karen! Sorry I didn't see this earlier. It's been a long time since I've been on the blog. I might need to start writing some again.
Yeah, those links have been gone for some time now. He was fun to watch and was really in his element when going deep with someone like Wendell Castle.
