Reclaimed Kitchen Island Butcher Block
Here's the original request we received: something durable. it will be centerpiece of the kitchen and double as a place to eat and a place to work. i'm also a chef so something that's a mix of wood and industrial would be nice. Here are some details on the project from the maker: Included in this proposal are all labor and materials to fabricate, finish and deliver kitchen island as described in attached drawing and sketch. Table-top to be made of solid walnut with a hand-rubbed, oil finish. Legs, frame and bottom shelf to be made of Douglas Fir. Legs frame and shelf can be either painted, or stained and top coated. The walnut to be used is reclaimed from a tree that was downed in a storm in Garrison, NY. It is not "antique" or "distressed". The Fir to be used is from a structural beam, salvaged from a construction site in Croton, NY. The Fir is clean and square, but may show some knots and minor cracks. Thank you and please contact me with any questions.

Jan 20, 2015Dan Fabian is an incredible craftsman. He walked us through the whole project, showed us samples, gave advice and was very easy to work with. The project was completed before the scheduled deadline. Our table is beautiful and exactly what we wanted and more. I would and will work with Dan again.

Jan 31, 2015I just received a floating bedroom vanity that I needed built to a specific size. I had an idea of what I wanted but couldn't find something that was the right fit. Dan was fantastic and built exactly what I was looking for but would have never found anywhere. He communicated throughout the process, shared sketches, and pics as it was being built. I could not be happier and would definitely recommend him and work with him again.
