  1. Glad I found this. I'm a great grand son of Bert. Just today I was rewiring and repairing a beautiful cedar floor lamp Bert made on a lathe in his shop. I will wait for one of my grandsons to help with refinishing when he visits soon.
    Does anyone know when he did most of his woodworking projects?
