Jake's Painting

Before that session kicked off Jake at least managed to get the latest painting finished. It still has to be framed of course, probably with bamboo...

Armrests

We were putting the armrests together today. These took a while but they are going to serve as storage compartments, and possibly house mini-fridges or speakers. An impromptu session stalled progress this afternoon when Dennis showed up and started playing the drums. Soon Jake was on his guitar and work was OVER.

The Backrest

The backrest is made from a 1958 Mercedes. Jake really liked the shape, so its pretty much untouched. It affords a nice surface on the back of the couch for some artwork...

The Shape

It took a while to get the shape right, those things tend to grow rather organically. But this is close. We may have to shave another inch or so off the back.

Starting Out

Jake dug out this bumper a few days ago and we went to work. Its from a 1955 Cadillac and will soon be someone's couch.
