Custom Projects

Making furniture from reclaimed wood can be considered green business. I have always been concerned about the environment and try to only use green products. I like using the outside edge near the bark of a tree and sometimes also the bark to remind me of the woods.

Some of the custom pieces I have made include; dining and coffee tables, benches, hutches, sideboards, storage chests, floating vanity, bed headboards, entertainment centers, church lectern, church processional cross stand, dry bar for theater house, cannon carriage, kidney shaped tables and chairs.

Please see some of the pieces that I have created over the years below.
