Here is our rustic wine barrel coffee table, the top is crafted from solid 1 ¼" thick red oak which provides a strong and solid table top to sustain daily usage for years. The current model dimensions are 42" x 31" x 21", and the top does hinge open for storage. The wine barrel comes from an aged barrel from the Napa Valley, either from white or red wine to customer request. The barrel is left unfinished to sustain the natural character of each individual wine. This model is stained with Black Walnut 2A and finished in Satin. My stain colors are listed from left to right on the photo in relation to the drop down list, i.e. far left is "Dark Walnut 1A."

About Me:
I live in northern California about 3 hours from the Bay Area, Tahoe, and Oregon. It's a nice location, separated away with privacy and cool mountain air, but close enough to cities to have some fun. Wood working has always been a hobby of mine since I can remember. Through the years, I have learned my skill set from my dad and grandfather. They both are incredible wood craftsman and they taught me quite a bit. Over the years my dad and I have built all sorts of wood pieces for family and friends.
My Business:
I will try to build anything a customer asks, however my favorite style which I am most accustomed to is a sort of modern rustic theme. I primarily use red oak, but will use any species and stain color a customer requests. I buy all my materials from a local vendor and I have friends who mill fallen trees for when I need special sized lumber milled. I try to keep money local and support families here.
Quality:
I love a quality wood product that functions as it should; this is mostly the reason I started building more of my own furniture through the years. Before I start milling, I will examine the rough wood and figure out what pieces will work where on the end product. When milling, I take it slow and ensure each piece is square and dimension correctly.
