    I came across this article today. Frank was a presenter at our club in the late 90’s. A very nice guy, willing to share info and made complicated veneering look easy.

    Great Article! Thanks for sharing, Charlie.
    I remember when we hosted Frank. A great guy and an amazing presentation. What a talent. I wish we had him give a class. I believe I still have some pieces of veneer I bought from his old company Pink Flamingo or something.

    Right? What a talented guy. I was amazed when he brought Elmers white glue to the club presentation and told us that he used it for almost all his veneering. I’m not sure if you were at his shop in Joisey on 09/10/01. GPS wasn’t around yet for cars and phones so we used the trade center as our landmark to find our way back to NYC.. Little did we know all of our lives would change in less than 24 hours.
