Evan Shively

Just got a call back from Mr. Shively, this morning. He said they're
located near Marshall in Point Reyes, about an hour north of the
Golden Gate Bridge. Their showroom apparently isn't a "walk-in"
affair, before you visit, he'd like you to all and get an appointment.
His number is on this page:

http://www.moore.org/stories/08_15/news_story.asp

At my request, he faxed me directions to get there. I'm not reposting
them here because I'm not sure he'd want that (although perhaps he
would); I'd suggest any interested Bay Area woodworkers call the
number on that page.

For future generations, perusing this in an archive, looking for
information - if the above link ever goes dead, email me and I'll mail
you the phone number back.

Brett:

Good detective work. Thanks for the effort. I thought
it might be in Marin.

I'll keep this in mind. Sounds like a great place and
would love to "roam" around there when I get setup
for my new shop.

I also know there's a place in Oakland/Berkley that
does reclaimed lumber as well. Mostly trees that
fell down and then milled.

Thank you Jack. I took a look at the site. ALMOST would make me wish I were
in Ca. Almost!

MJ,

My pleasure. If anyone goes and visits, I'd love to hear a trip
report. I'd been hoping he was going to have a "drop in any time" sort
of arrangement. I'm backed up right now on a bunch of very
non-artistic stuff for the house and don't have the budget for any
really pretty wood, anyhow. Probably be a couple of years before I
can really seriously even think about using any of his stock, and I'd
hate to waste his time just so I can drool.

Which does make me think - maybe a group of us could go up one day or
somesuch? I'd love to come along and browse if there's someone else
who may buy...

Only thing that would make me wish I was in CA was if I had to go to
pick up my Reader's Digest Sweepstakes check. Maybe.
