Furniture

 

Furniture is typically not available for purchase online.  It is a special request item that is completely customized to your needs. 

Below is a gallery of items I have made with a brief description and a price if that exact item were to be sold.  Shipping costs vary.

This is a bookshelf with cabinet below.  It is made with Birch plywood and solid maple.  All shelves are adjustable and the two parts disconnect for easy moving.  Light brown stain with a varnish finish. 

it measures approx. 7' tall X 3' wide X 1' deep for selves and 1.5' deep for cabinet.  Cost: $2000

 


This is a country style kitchen table with windsor style chairs.  I bought these pieces as bare furniture parts.  I assembled, stained and finished the pieces.  Most of the wood surface was dyed with a rich, reddish-brown dye.  The arched backs and table apron were ebonized with a black dye.  Everything was finished with varnish finish.  The table top received several coats of varnish before it was rubbed to a satin finish.

Table measures 4' X2.5' X 30"high.  Cost: table - $800   Chairs - $150/each

Is it a table or is it a desk?  I made this table/desk for a friend works at home but doesn't like traditional desks.  All he really wanted was a table big enough for his computer and piles of papers.  I convinced him to let me put in a small pencil drawer and I put in a side extension for when he needs just a little more space.  The pencil drawer actually has two compartments but the back compartment is kind of like a secret compartment as it can only be accessed if you flip a small latch on the underside of the table.  The table is also about 3" taller than standard height as he is very tall and therefore, needs lot of leg room.  It is made of Walnut.  The drawer sides are aspen that are hand-cut half-blind dovetailed to the front and the drawer bottom is birch plywood.  Finished with an oil-based stain followed by several coats of an oil-based wipe on polyurethane.

Measures appox. 5'X3'X39"    Cost: $2300

This is a folding table.  It is strong enough to have me lie on it.  It was a project I did so my wife and I would have enough table seating for a party we had.  It has a 2X4 frame and legs.  The edge is trimmed with 1 inch white pine and the top is 1/2 inch birch plywood.  All exposed surfaces were finished with several coats of orange shellac.

 

Table measures approx. 8' X 3' X 3' high when unfolded.  It is about 4' X 3' X 5" when folded.  Cost:  $600

These are two model train display cases I made for a family member.  The tall one is for N-scale trains, the wide one is for HO-scale trains.  They are made of oak with a hand made walnut knob on the door.  Finished with a honey maple stain followed by a water-based polyurethane.  They have a magnetic closure and are designed to either stand alone or be hung on a wall.  (*note: the glass for the doors was not installed for shipping purposes)

Each case measures Approx. 22"X13" X 3" - 4" (depth varies depending on which scale train was to be displayed)

Cost:  $200 each

This is a wine rack I designed and made for a family member.  It can hold up to 12 bottles of wine and 12-18 wine glasses; the top can also act as a shelf for display or pouring wine if the rack is mounted low.  It is made of cherry with walnut accents - hand-cut inlay keys which support the front end of the glass holders and a walnut lip on the front edge of the shelf.  Finished with a coat of clear shellac followed by a water-based polyurethane.  It hangs on a cherry bracket that is mounted on the wall (not shown).

 

Rack measures approx. 25"X15"X10"   Cost: $350

Not really a piece of furniture but it is for display.  This is a brochure display.  I made this for a family member who raises alpacas (a cousin of the llama) and takes them to shows.  This display hangs on the fence used to pen the animals.  The lid acts as a little table top when opened as shown in the picture.  It is made of maple with hand-cut dovetail corners, birch  plywood framed with solid maple for the lid, and birch plywood for the back.  Finished with a water-based dye, clear shellac, and finally a water-based polyurethane.

 

Case measures approx. 25"X18"X4"  Cost: $300

This is a Skein winder.  A member of our family has started to spinning the fiber from the alpacas (a cousin of the llama) another family member is raising.  This winder was made to be somewhat collapsible as the post comes out of the base and the base comes apart as it is only held together with dovetails.  One could remove the post easily if need be using just a couple of wrenches.  The pegs fit into the holes which are positioned to give either 1, 1.5, or 2 yards per turn which makes for easy measuring of the total length of the skein.

 

Winder measures approx. 3.5' the the highest, approx. 2' wide, and approx. 10" deep.  Cost:  $100

This is a Lazy Kate.  It is used as part of the spinning process if one wants to make a multi-ply yarn (which most yarns are).  This one is designed to hold up to 4 bobbins (of the Louet type) and has an adjustable tension.  It's a bit crude-looking because I made it in a hurry, but it works very well.

 

Base measures approx. 12"X7"  Cost: $50
