Book Shelf

Book Shelf

$300

With the desire to build for function, this simple bookcase serves the purpose. A tapered front and back make it ideal for any placement in a room. The shelves are tennoned through the side making it sturdy, while a few knot holes and keyed cracks give it a more rustic quality. This was built using air dried walnut from my stock

I build custom furniture, cabinets and interior woodwork. I have a large stock of air dried domestic hardwoods in house to choose from if desired, most of which I have harvested or reclaimed. A general emphasis on hand tools and traditional joinery is my trademark. However, my shop is well equipped with power machinery which helps the process along with the necessary shortcuts needed for efficiency. I focus on pushing boundaries in design while practicing traditional woodworking.
I attended Rosewood Studio school of Fine Woodworking in Almonte, Onterio in 2003 were I studied hand tools and joinery such as dovetails, mortise and tennons, etc. In 2006 I was awarded a Sam Maloof scholarship and attended a body conscious chair design class at Anderson Ranch in Snowmass, CO led by Berkely anthropology professor Galen Cranz and chairmaker Issabelle Moore of Britain.
