Master Music Stand

I have a musician friend who asked that i create an elaborate music stand to match his rocking chair that he sits in and plays his trumpet. I tried building this without steam bending wood, because i've never done that! Well instead of bending, it was breaking! I ended up drawing it out in full scale, building a form for the steamed wood and building a steam box to steam bend it. This was an awesome challenge but one that i found VERY rewarding! My client said it gave her goose bumps! You just can't beat that!
