Farm House Breadboard Dining Table
This is a nice example of a 42 x 72 dining table, using yellow pine, surface planed to 5/4". All boards are 7", biscuit and glued. The bread board ends are 5", oak doweled. Pine legs are tapered and bolted to the table skirt. Each leg has a glide under foot. All edges on this table got treated with a chamfer, including between the boards on the top. The interior chamfers are reduced to make it a small groove in the finished top. A penetrating stain is used, Red Mahogany in this example, and then 4 coats of EMTECH 9000 VOC water based urethane. With this I added Dark Walnut tint to the clear coat because the client wanted it less red and more brown. I can put an additive to the clear finish, and achieve a harder finish, more resistant to chemical cleaners and abrasions. Used in commercial bar tops and tables. Typically unnecessary for home use. This semi-gloss finish has been cured for 3 days when the photos were taken. This table comfortably seats 6, and will seat 8 if needed. Everything I do is custom built for a client, unless otherwise stated. The client can pick up or pay for shipping. I would be happy to build one for you!

Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
Since adolescence, I have dreamed of being a traditional artist. As a lifelong carpenter, I have found joy and expression thru my work and love designing and building Custom Made pieces and installations for customers and home owners.
I get called to build kitchens and baths and library built-ins, bars, beds, tables and benches.
Each are unique, because the customer is unique.
Many of my clients want unique, one of a kind pieces. Meeting their expectations, gives me tremendous satisfaction and pride for my finished products and pieces
Many jobs start with someone sending me a photo of something they like, but want to make custom.
It's helpful to talk on the phone, as a designer, I am full of questions. That helps to make the project fulfill customers’ objective.
I will usually design something with CAD and send it in 3D image and video image. This is especially helpful if it is a very unique project.
