Niki

I have learnt of the sad new of Niki a true woodwork forum member here and other forums worldwide.

quote

Niki passed away this week after a long illness (info from an e-mail a friend of mine on another forum received).

Condolences to his wife Regina on this sad news.

Ray

That is very sad.

Regina and Niki will be in my thoughts and prayers. His innovative jigs made from simple materials were an inspiration to me.

What terribly sad news. Niki contributed so much to this forum and other forums over the years. His incredible ability to create jigs that were super standard will be a monument to him.
My thoughts go out to his wife and family. It is indeed a very sad loss to all.

My heart felt sadness as I read this Niki will surely be missed his ideas and WIP's shall remain for all to see.

Bugger.

Sad news indeed. We knew Niki had had some problems but his last post indicated he was OK.

My thoughts are with his family.

Sad days indeed.

Thanks for that Groggy, unfortunately many of the pictures included in the original threads have been removed from their location and not available any longer to view which is a pity. Nevertheless, there are some good threads well worth reading again.

How about a memorial from the forum for niki - use the wayback machineto retrieve niki's photos and make his threads a library collection?

:clap::repplus:

I know Niki was a member of a number of forums and he had been trying to update the photo's and some of the jigs until he took ill.

I'll do a search on the other forums and see what I can find.

What a tragedy. What a loss.

Worst news so far this year.

+2 for a memorial.

Without cheers,
Joe

Very sad news indeed......

Hopefully one way or another all of Niki's (considerable) contributions can be preserved on the forum.
