Nothing like a good mineral spirit wipe down of Black Walnut. Always blown away by how much the color and character comes alive with this stuff. It never gets old. Getting a number of nightstands cleaned up before applying the finish!

Happy Friday everyone! I've been hashing out a few versions of these tapered legs trying to hone in on the process and land on the angles and proportions I'm happy with. When you're intentionally working out of square, there's a lot to wrap your head

Throwing it back to hands down one of my favorite projects ever! These stained glass doors were a concept I had in the back of my mind long before I ever attempted one, and I'm glad I did. It was definitely a jump out of my comfort zone, but those ar

I've been wanting to work on some mid century modern furniture for a long time now, and I'm finally making it a priority. I've always been a huge fan of the minimalistic styling, but I've found minimalistic furniture doesn't necessarily mean it's eas

Snagged a bunch of beautiful 8/4 ash for the @brrooster project! I've got a few things to button up on the fabrication side of things, but the woodworking portion of the build is coming in super hot. Some LONG days and nights ahead as delivery day fa

Happy #humpday everyone. Just wanted to post a little update on the @brrooster table builds! I'm grinding away (literally and figuratively) on these tables and everything is going smooth as butter. The welded miters are all dressed out on the 10' com

Take a look at this maple, cherry, and black walknut butcher block countertop I made for @paradisegardensnica. This block lives in a beautiful bus that was meticulously renovated for the upcoming one way journey to #nicaragua. Paradise Gardens is an

Finally a sturdy and truly FLAT fabrication table. Shout-out to @weldtables for creating such a great product. I managed to weld up the table and base in only a couple of hours, threw a few coats of paint on the base, and it was ready to go. Can't wa

Gluing up a pretty complicated butcher block that be adorning probably THE nicest renovated bus I've ever seen. It'll be making a one way journey to Nicaragua later this month and @paradisegardensnica, thanks so much for your patience with this one w

Finally, a real dedicated miter station! I've been fumbling with a mobile miter stand and I'm so stoked to finally have room for something that doesn't turn into a wrestling match every time I use it. I built the bottom cabinet with plenty of storage

MEGA POST WARNING! Just wanted to give everyone an update on things, but I'm finally getting settled into my new shop! I know I've been relatively silent on here over the past few weeks, but all for good reasons. Like most small business owners, espe

This dresser was hands down the most difficult project I've ever tackled and definitely an experience I'll never forget. Aside from all the woodworking and fabrication involved, the sheer size and weight of this piece was a huge challenge in itself.

Pretty obsessed with this maple slab I used for an 8' hall table that'll be headed to Montana in a couple of days. This client wanted cracks, knots, spalt, wormholes, and a healthy dose of resin fills and bowties, so this pithy slab of maple was a pr

In the home stretch of finishing this beast of a dresser up! I'm beyond happy with how it's turned out up to this point, but it's been a hell of a learning experience getting here. This is the first dresser I've made, so the learning curve of a first

The nightstands are wrapped up and I couldn't be happier with the outcome! This project has definitely brought on a unique set of challenges to work through but it's been a blast building these. This is my first project using @odiesoil and definitely
