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...

Looking for a beautiful Slab Dining Table? SOLD! I have two slabs coming from Costa Rica soon to be dining room tables. I made one table with this same wood, Guanacaste Parota last year and it was spectacular. Parota is stable, thick, and incredibly beautiful loaded with interesting grain patterns, color and figure. FOR SALE NOW, purchase directly through Paypal using your account or a credit card. Or buy through Etsy . . . https://www.etsy.com/listing/472979125/parota-slabs SOLD!   Here are a couple shots of my first Parota slab table with finish being applied: The surface of the Parota Slab with Waterlox finish: The shot above shows the heartwood at top and Sap wood at bottom.

Jewelry Box to Hold a Lifetime

By -

A jewelry box from the heart by Instar Design   This jewelry box was specifically designed for my client, searching for the perfect 5th year anniversary gift for his wife. He wanted tons of storage while remaining a countertop piece, a keltic reference, and the sensual box legs which I have had repeated requests for throughout the years. He shared examples with me of boxes he liked for storage but the design fell short in his eyes.  I came up with an overall concept and the piece evolved as I began collecting the materials for end panels, face frame, the legs and lid. I have never made this leg design so tall and I love them! Plenty of surface for that Claro Walnut to boast of it's red, cream and burnt sienna coloring. I also found a board of  Maple  for this project at Gilmer Wood Company   located in the industrial neighborhood in NW Portland. This Figured Maple was like butter. It milled, carved and sanded in such an effortless way. I have neve...
