Some recent work |
|
|
|
Solid cherry poster bed. For pieces like this that aren't subject to water/chemicals I prefer tung oil because it protects without hiding the wood behind a sheet of plastic. |
|
|
Modern cherry table and chair set finished with 4 coats of polyurethane. Chairs are simple and strong with lexan seats to show off joinery, seats remove easily for buffing. Several plywood mock-ups of chair were done until the fit for the customer was perfect. |
|
|
Large cherry desk with full extension file drawers, frame and panel construction. 'Man sized' desks are nearly impossible to buy, this one has ample leg room and a large working surface. Drawers have heavy duty full extension slides and are made of poplar. Finish is tung oil with polyurethane (top only). |
|
|
Custom fireplace mantle, simple and solid. Machined from rough lumber onsite. Four coats HVLP sprayed polyurethane finish for durability. Granite is blue pearl. |
|
|
Cherry bookcases with wrought iron hardware. In this piece, cherry with knots and full figuring was chosen to make the bookcases appear less formal and more visually interesting. Each of the four bookcase units can be used separately or in a group of two, three or four with cherry baseboard and crown wrapped around to integrate them visually. |
|
|
Custom built-in cabinets with a bold look. Solid birch frames and doors, birch plywood shelves with solid face. Five coats HVLP sprayed polyurethane. |
|
|
Custom kitchen, combination of onsite custom and pre-made cabinets. Refrigerator and dishwasher are paneled for a clean look. Maple crown milled to match profile of white painted crown for continuity. |
|
|
Not a traditional woodworking project, this experimental aircraft is about 70% complete. Structure is steel tubing with wood ribs. A great combination of woodworking, engineering, and craftsmanship. |
|
|
I love using quality tools. These planes made in the USA by Lie-Nielsen are a joy to use and are probably the best in the world. |
