Dixie Briggs Woodworking
I spent 17 years building high-rises in San Francisco during the week, and woodworking in my garage on my days off. One day, after a heart-to-heart with a chunk of rosewood, I quit construction and embarked upon a lifelong dream. For the next two years I immersed myself in intensive study at the world-renowned fine woodworking school, College of the Redwoods (founded by master woodworker James Krenov). Today you can find me at my shop at 1800 Ferry Point on the old Naval base on Alameda Island. Whether you’re seeking a gorgeous serving tray, a finely joined keepsake box, coffee or dining room tables and benches that make a statement, or fine interior trim and design, I’ll work with you to create a piece or living space that you’ll truly treasure.

Chris Bechtel
Chris is an East Bay native who has explored a variety of fields before landing at the Naval Air Station.
He studied fine art from an early age, was a dedicated athlete in training for the Olympics, did stints as race car mechanic, test driver, and motorcycle road racer, and wore many hats in motion picture production as an aspiring filmmaker. He spent many more years acquiring skills as a carpenter and craftsman, which led to forays into architecture, industrial design, and mechanical engineering.
In 2008 Chris moved his small furniture studio from Berkeley to his shop at Alameda Point as he expanded into metal fabrication, prototyping and mechanical design. When he is not welding architectural fixtures or machining sailboat parts or drawing CAD models, he puts in the hours with his two favorite hobbies; building streamlined human-powered vehicles and looking after Lucky the shop cat.

Rahn Woodworking & Design
After years of building furniture for friends and business associates, more than a decade ago I stepped away from my job as a media executive to follow my passion and have not looked back. Design influences for me include Japanese, Danish and Arts and Crafts. Working in the Bay Area with its large inventory of craftsman homes has meant lots of furniture to fit that design ethic. Working as I do at Alameda Point Studios also means a synergy of ideas and talent that has helped me grow as a craftsman. For me, building fine furniture and cabinetry helps carry on a legacy of craftsmanship that helps dispel the notion that the only furniture available is cheap, imported junk. My philosophy of strong customer service and satisfaction comes from building furniture that, as I tell my clients, your grandchildren will fight over when you’re gone.

Alex Thomas Woodworking
Alex, a self defined starving artist, struggles each month to pay his bills on time but takes great pleasure in the fact that he does not whore himself out to the man in exchange for financial security. Alex’s artistic career began with ceramics at the high school level where he was able to put together a portfolio good enough to earn him admission into the Rhode Island School of Design. Four years and a BFA in Sculpture later, Alex found himself disenchanted with the popular New York art scene and moved to the deserts of Mexico where he took up an apprenticeship creating silver jewelry, drinking large quantities of tequila and ingesting psychotropic cacti for several long and arduous months. After several years of aimless wanderings from Mexico to the eastern US working odd jobs and sleeping with strange women, Alex returned to his boyhood home to take up the reins of the family farm. Following financial catastrophe that resulted in eviction from his family home, Alex again turned his back to the lures of capitalistic machine and sought refuge in the costal redwoods where he enrolled in the nine-month fine woodworking program at college of the redwoods in Fort Bragg, CA. Alex currently resides in Oakland, CA, working a day job as an Arborist in SF and designing and building high quality handcrafted furniture out of his rented space with the kind folks at 1800 ferry point in Alameda, California.

Consultants in Engineering Acoustics (CIEA)
Consultants in Engineering Acoustics (CIEA) provides professional engineering and inventive services in the specialties of noise, vibration, and flow. CIEA was founded in 1976 by Thomas R. Norris, a registered professional Mechanical Engineer. Staff consists of Kier DeAnda, who manages model and instrumentation work, and his wife, Karen, who handles the firm’s many administrative challenges. The firm’s specialties are technical and financial aspects of industrial noise analysis and strategies, and developing new technologies for reducing noise of fluid flow and turbulence. Most of this work involves improving efficiency of the process, and is thus a “green” endeavor. Mr. Norris has about 15 patents, both US and foreign. Mr. Norris has authored or co-authored 20 technical papers in noise control technology, with emphasis on specialty silencers with low energy losses CIEA maintains a noise, flow, and vibration laboratory in Alameda, CA. The facility is capable of “cold flow” testing scale models of the largest turbines, and full size models of turbines up to about 20 MW.
Clients include industry, other consulting firms, and government. In the “green” power industry, current clients are Lake County Special Districts, Calpine, Ormat, and Turbine Air Systems. In fossil power, we are assisting in permitting issues and noise technology for GWF Power systems, of Pittsburg, CA.
Products include industrial silencers and special exhaust vane systems that incrementally increase the efficiency of power plants. This reduces greenhouse gas emission. These vane systems are now found in nearly 100 power plants and most gas turbine powered large cruise ships. An example is RMS Queen Mary 2, where our technology helps power this largest-ever ocean liner at over 30 knots. Most of Royal Caribbean’s gas turbine fleet also use this technology.
On the military side, our work on the M1 Abrams tank eliminated the squeaky sound that nearly all US tanks have had, and is in the sound tracks of so many war films. With modern information technology, the traditional squeak sound had become a liability. This work, done with an Army lab, received a “best technical paper of the year” award for military ground vehicle advances.
Current lab development projects are a silencer for an overseas power plant, and an exhaust system design that will reduce greenhouse gas emissions of a class of mid-sized electric power plants. Model parts are mostly built in Alameda, using in house staff and outside shops.

Digital Mobile Design
Jeffrey St. Pierre is a film maker, audio engineer, and musician. I started my career shooting music videos for record labels which aired these videos on a new cable channel called MTV some 30 years ago. After creating videos for such artists as Steve Miller, George Clinton, Tom Waits, and many others, I decided to move from Hollywood, back up to San Francisco, to concentrate my career efforts on music creation. I toured, and recorded for 15 years playing drums with various bands based out of the SF Bay Area. During that time I also worked as a second engineer at the famous Plant Recording Studios in Sausalito Ca. Later, I decided to get married, and raise our daughter, so I hung up the drum sticks for the last 18 years, worked various jobs, plus freelanced as a video producer, and audio engineer. Now that my daughter is about to leave the nest, and go on to college, I have decided to launch a new production company called Digital Mobile Design. I am currently converting a retired city transit bus into a mobile film, video, and audio production studio. This bus will consist of a high definition video editing suite, and 48 channel digital audio recording studio. The bus will enable on location production, and editing for film, and video, plus on location audio recording for film, video, and live music concerts. If all stays on schedule, I project the bus will be completed, and online by the beginning of 2013.
Solomonson Studios
Joel Solomonson's Minnesota upbringing initially kept him close to home, graduating from the University of South Dakota where he earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts. His creative vision was enough to gain acceptance to Cranbrook Acadeny of Art in Detroit, MI.

His interest in camera construction evolved into a broader interest in furniture construction and craftsmanship. Manifest destiny shown its golden westward rays and after receiving his Master of Fine Arts degree he packed up and moved west and on a whim he landed in the Bay Area. He promptly got a job in cabinet shop and started honing his craft. A rapid development lead him to strike out on his own and he found an exciting new place to open up shop at Alameda Point Studios. That was over 4 years ago. Joel has found success as a custom furniture designer and fabricator as he applies his skills and creative vision to a long list of commercial and residential clients.
