Xl Serving Boards
I have been asked to make many of the XL version serving boards from this Cuban Mahogany "live Edge" wood that i have decided to just make a new listing and show several woods and sizes…All XL boards are at least 24" x 10" and some being larger by request at this price. All boards are finished to 400 grit hand sanding and coated multiple time with 100% Tung Nut Oil. All of my exotic woods are reclaimed from the storms we get here in South Florida and aged for several years then cut into slabs to dry another year.

My name is Dave Sutton.
Retiring after fifteen years of being a professional flats guide here in South Florida due to the 2009 recession and the gulf oil spill.
I then worked at home for Hotel Vanities International and have a small, but very well equipped wood shop in the back yard.
I have now moved to the mountains of Murphy, North Carolina and am in the process of building my retirement home and new workshop.
For almost 40 years I have given my very best effort to create heirloom quality pieces for every one of my customers that will last a lifetime.
Almost 4 decades of wood crafting has taught me one thing. If I want it done just right…
I have to do it myself.
If I don't like it, you won't see it. It's that simple.
I am the designer, craftsman and woodworker,
I pick the log and the slabs, I do the shaping and all the sanding. All of the assembly and fitting ??? Yup…all me.
I also do the hand rubbed finishes myself as well.
I learned my trade growing up in Rhode Island building handmade strip-wood canoes, hand made cabinets, slab furniture and working in various shipyards on the coast of Maine till I moved to Florida in 1990.
Finding all of the exotic woods available to me here was amazing. I was like a little kid in a candy store.
I now have built and moved into my retirement cabin in Murphy, NC and have just finished my new workshop. I love the mountains and the people here …

For Parson Table5.0Dave's woodworking craftsmanship is superb. He followed my specifications exactly and went the extra mile to install some additional hardware required to make the installation easier. I picked up the project myself at Dave's shop and he showed me other specialty furniture items he is creating for other clients. I was so impressed that I went home to look for more projects for Dave! Highly recommended.

For Walking Sticks Or Canes4.2Sturdy, good looking staff. Directions for creating the staff could have been followed a little better (actual shape/angle/design of head and the stain color), but still a good production overall.
