Will be dependant on size and scope of the project. Larger furniture may need to be shipped by freight. Shaker carved items can ship via typical shipping methods. Pricing on estimates will include a line item for shipping. These are custom made and personal items, not mad produced, so I can't offer free shipping. Sorry.

I take great pride in my work. If you buy something and are unsatisfied with the result, I guarantee that I will work with you to adjust the design free of charge. Custom work is non-refundable and once in-progress, custom projects cannot be cancelled. For stock items purchased directly from my portfolio, I offer returns within 60 days of delivery. Shipping for returns is at the customer's expense. If you need an item by a specific date or for a specific event, please let me know in advance of accepting a proposal.

Trestle Table

$3,500

Dining room table that is re-purposed for a meeting table. Customer wanted a display area under a piece of glass for military heraldry items to be displayed. Apple ply construction with a paste wax finish - so the Soldiers can keep it nice.

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

I am a former general contractor - built homes for a mid-size builder, did finish carpentry, spiral staircases, European cabinetry, and fine furniture. Currently a Captain in the Oregon Army National Guard I also enjoy military heraldry projects on the side for awards and display purposes.

I have a modest shop with most all the right tools - except a lathe and I enjoy a good project to obsess over. Typically tables, dressers, shelves, and residential home built-ins are my specialty. I have been known to make cabinets for friends not on a production schedule.

Wood is my main medium of choice. I only build with solid wood or high quality plywood - baltic birch or apple ply. No particle board here! Fiber board and melamine only when the project needs dictate the use of it. I am open to multiple textures - metal, tile, glass, or other ingredients if it makes the item interesting.

I innovate for each customer with AutoCAD renderings and 3D models of concepts - think Design-Build. I interview each customer to understand their unique needs and help create the piece that they didn't even believe was possible!

Being an Army Engineer, we own a battle cry of "Essayons!" which means "Let Us Try!" - for me, that means there is no obstacle too difficult to breach!

My estimates and preliminary concept drawings are free until an agreement is made for a build.

I look forward to working with you on your next project!
