Tom's project!

In our yard next to our pool is a tea house which has seen better days.  The structure itself is sound, and it has a good roof, but the shoji screens are battered, broken and worn.  For some time Tom has been working toward replacing them.  Himself. 

The first step was an experiment to see how to make them.  In Berkeley a couple of years ago he started by building a model, about half size.  Then last year he took it up a notch by making two screens to serve as closet doors in his office.  A stunning success.  So now, without further ado, he is working on the three screens for the tea house, two with rice paper, and another with mesh screening.

After that, can the recliner, beer fridge and flat screen tv be far behind?  

We are so excited!
