Figured Cherry Buffet
I designed this buffet in the craftsman style added some of my own design elements a curved top and double tapered legs. As with any good furniture I use soft close hidden under mount slides and soft close hinges for the doors. I have added a bit of brown to the stain and the cherry will oxidize over time to produce a rich patina. I can build this unit from different woods and with different door configurations.

John Fawcett
JGFstudio for woodworking
I have forty years of experience in the woodworking. I build custom designed furniture from both new and reclaimed wood. My specialty is designing and building tables, buffets, bars, kitchen islands and similar pieces. I like to incorporate other craft items (and items provided by client ) in my work such as blacksmith hardware, old glass and stained glass. Once a proposal is agreed to I will provide both a detailed drawing and a stain or paint sample. As a project progresses I give updates and photos of the stage of completion. I have an excellent on time completion rate. Please see my reviews from past clients.
Although I include drawings after a proposal is agreed to if you would like a design prior to signing a proposal my design fee is 50.00 per hour. This fee is waved if later a proposal is agreed to.

Apr 28, 2018Our new bench, built by John, has just arrived and we could not be happier. John built us a bench to our exact specifications based on a photograph of a historic bench that we provided. The craftsmanship is superb and we highly recommend him.

Nov 23, 2017From the outset of my experience with Custommade.com I was impressed with the number and quality of bids received. I published a specific specification, desired wood and a very short timeline for my custom table. John gave me two options and a great bid price. He committed to the short timeline. After accepting his proposal he took the time to come to see the historic home and took the time to match the stain of the table to other furniture. He is exceptional.
