Reclaimed White Oak Sideboard

$1,100

60" long, 29" high, 20" deep. A while ago I got the privilege of salvaging as much as I could from a 1750s farmhouse in MA that was being demolished. I came away with a few truckloads of solid white oak subflooring, floor joists, and wall beams-- this sideboard is made from elements of all three. Designed to show off the aged wood but be as solid and functional as a modern piece of furniture. Finished with a wax/linseed oil combination.

Furniture, woodturnings, installations, and reproductions. Made in Grand Rapids with solid wood and love.

I came to furniture and woodworking the long way through general construction, spending many years rehabbing urban rowhomes on the staff of Sandtown Habitat for Humanity in Baltimore, where I was forced to think abstractly and learned to love solving problems and working within restricted budgets.

This translates well to the work I do now, where the projects I love taking on the most involve critical thinking, imagination, and the challenge (and joy) of finding just the right solution to a tricky situation. The projects I love best involve elements I've never done before, which both make me a better carpenter and produce my most creative works.

I try my best to use sustainably harvested and local lumber, or reclaim lumber from barns, houses, and factories around me. I use solid hardwoods, not only for their natural beauty, but because it fits best with my own woodworking philosophies of building to last generations and reflecting the natural properties and character of different wood species. I aim for simplicity and elegance in my work, employing traditional joinery when it's needed, not simply for ornament. I love what I do, and hope you do too.
