Work is flowing in and out of the shop!  Here is a recent custom project I have been designing and building for an awesome client in Austin, TX. He wants to 'wow' his wife with this incredibly meaningful gift. Click here for more info about this piece Together they traveled to Scotland and saw the Kelpie tombstone below. We used this image for the main inlay in the top. Every bit of inlay supports the water horse and Celtic theme. I even carved the pulls like waves of water.  The box turned out beautifully! The Kelpie (water-horse) design on the top was inspired by a gravestone in Scotland: I hope it will hold her finest pieces and bring her peace and joy when she reaches into it at the beginning and at the end of each day.  Velvet lined drawer with walnut dividers . . . Made of Leopardwood, walnut and Maple and African Blackwood. hand carved legs accent this piece As my professor said "she is one very lucky woman". Enj...

Home Office Desk for a Lifetime

Reclaimed Home Office Desk  Sometimes it's a phone call, sometimes I'm just driving down the road and come upon a stack of beams put out on Friday from a construction crew, sometimes I have to go hunting but inevitably I come across timber that has served it's purpose and is slated for the landfill. Most of the time I look at the wood and can see right away another use for it.  Laying out the wood for a project is a huge element in the success of the piece. Noticing the grain direction, colors, knots, splits or figure all have to do with the overall design of the piece. I rearrange until my body feels that right feeling. It's a sense. All is right. That's when I proceed to the first step.    Just because the wood is reclaimed doesn't mean it comes looking like the finished product. It all started for me when I was invited to come get some wood from an old metal mill. Friends of friends were turning this old building into a physical therapy center and they had fl...
