I have a question for you all. I am in the planning stages of building a music stand, I like the simplicity of this Maloof stand. One of the design areas I'd like to use is the arm and sheet/book music support part of the design. I can't see how the arm is staying in place, could it be as simple as gravity? The weight of the left side of the arm is heavier than the right side, so it's pinching on the vertical post as it rests? There isn't any obvious screw handle or clamping mechanism holding the horizontal assembly up and in place. I am assuming the height is adjustable? Thanks for any opinions on this.

Here is an excellent and very affordable opportunity to brush elbows with a master in craftsmanship and chat about techniques and mastery in woodworking. The event is today, at 4pm Pacific time. You will be online via Zoom Meetings and interacting with Mike Johnson, woodworker for the Sam Maloof Foundation. The Sam Maloof Foundation is having a rough time folks, since Covid they have been shut down, they depend on visitors to the compound for sales and funding of the Maloof Foundation. So help them keep it live, donate what you can as your fee to be in on the Zoom Meeting with a master in woodworking. For more information please go to this newsletter link at: Online Maker Talk w/ Mike Johnson of Sam Maloof Woodworker! MAILCHI.MP Remember, donate what you can, from a dollar on up, and you are in. If you are able, be generous! I won't be able to make it, but if any of you do happen to make this event, please report back here and let us know how it went. PS, a special shout out to my wife for she informed me of this event, she donates online to the foundation regularly, she just loves the place, so she gets a newsletter frequently and found this event via the newsletter. Thanks wife!

Inside the Maloof customer gallery, this is where potential customers come and place orders. This chair is one of his earlier models, you can tell by the straight back support spindles, later he started curving the back for lumbar support. -

A Maloof Chair in progress, this chair is being made by Mike Johnson, the first paid employee of Maloof from his early years. Maloof entrusted Mike with the daily operations of the shop, and he passed on the legacy to Mike upon Sam's death. I got to sit and watch Mike shape the headrest for this chair with rasp. It was fun. We came back an hour later and he had closed up shop around 3:30pm. -

The smell inside of Maloof's walnut storage barn was incredible. My wife looks on in awe at the figure in the slab walnut. -

My lovely wife on our 28th Anniversary date to the Maloof compound. This is a separate gallery showcasing the friends of Maloof and their artwork they donated or gifted to the family. The chair is a Maloof, the only Maloof item in this gallery, made of Avocado wood from one of his trees, it was not the best looking Maloof I have seen, the wood did not take his finish very well, and it was blotchy, and I am certain it was not his favorite chair, thus the reason they set here, accessible to the public. -
