Louis Irion Reproduction Secretary
Woodworker: Chris Hedges
This Philadelphia secretary swept the AWFS Fresh Wood student competition in July 2007, taking first place in the reproduction category, best in show, and the people’s choice award. Hedges, from Rio Grande Community College, estimates it took 600 hours to complete this copy of a piece by Louis Irion. The woods are quartersawn curly cherry, madrone burl, and poplar. Hedges finished the piece with aniline dye, tung oil, garnet shellac, oil glaze, and wax.
