Reclaimed Oak Bar/Table

Reclaimed Oak Bar/Table

$550

made entirely from reclaimed oak train station carts, this piece was made to act as a bar/buffet area in customer's house. the customer gave me the design and plans, based on a workbench, and i took it a little further and made it more personal.

  • Long-time member

    A Maker who has been a valued part of this community for several years.

    Customers say that this Maker ships promptly after completing a project.

  • Great service

    This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.

I am an independent artist/artisan working exclusively in reclaimed, recycled, upcycled and found materials.

i make the useless useful again. i make worthless things priceless.

from conception, to making it to sweeping up, i am a one-man operation - by design.

my work is not for everyone. my customers are people who want truly unique, one-of-a-kind pieces that are made fairly and ethically from locally salvaged materials - with as small a footprint as i can muster.

i will make and ship things all over the united states (depending on size) but i prefer to work regionally (Boston to NYC and thereabouts).

listed on this page are some pieces i've made for others and some pieces i have available for sale. but what i really want to do is design and make what YOU want. let's do it!

be good,
tim

oh yeah, at youtube.com/timsway you will find more than one hundred video of things i've made.

    I can't say enough how impressed I was with Tim and his constant communication to ensure the wooden chest he made for me was exactly what I wanted. I was so unsure of what wood I wanted so he sent me pics of different choices and finally we found a winner! My wooden storage chest has a proud place in our 1892 farmhouse.
    Great workmanship…great guy! Thanks Tim!

    Thank you Tim for making my vision come to life (and within budget!!!) You humbly stated that you are not the best wood worker on custom made but you could've fooled me. Your work is beautiful and well crafted, and you know how to work fluidly with your clients, which is the most difficult part.
    Thank you again and I wouldn't hesitate to work with you again in the future!

    I had a blast working with Tim. I had a really simple idea and through his passion for creation he took it to the next level without a hitch. Great guy to work with if you ever need a little inspiration on a project!
