In case you missed it, the cherry writing desk pictured left was chosen as the Best in Open Class at this year’s WoodExpo.

Crafted by Plymouth, Massachusetts, woodworker Ryan Messier, the desk also won the People’s Choice Award.

Good to know Ryan has a place to put those awards on display.

Check out this nice piece that Ryan’s hometown paper did on him.
