Can you shoot it before the glue is hard?
No. We will come back when it is. A wet joint looks finished only if we lie about it.
Do you take the chair to a studio?
The floor is the studio. If the piece cannot be moved, that is the picture.
Will the apprentice be named?
If the hands are theirs and they agree. We do not put the master's name on someone else's stool.
What if it does not fit in the van?
It waits for the Friday it fits. We do not make a picture for a shop that will not receive the piece.
Which language?
Romanian at the bench. The shops farther north write in the language they already use, and the folder follows that.
When do the files leave?
Before the van door shuts on Friday. A shop should not wait until the chair arrives to know what it looks like.
