A classic Shaker design. This example made of birch finished in tung oil varnish.
All my beds feature a hidden bolted tenon from the side rails into the head and footboard. This ensures a rock solid construction for generations.

    For Nakashima-Inspired Conoid Chair
    4.3

    This project took longer than expected, he did explain what happened to cause this. The chairs packed so well it took me two hours to unpack them, in other words pack perfectly. Once the were in the house at the table thet are so much better than even I expected. I have been to many ACC shows as a craftsman and a buyer and his work is as good as any I have seen. He improved on George Nakashima's design by making it much more comfortable and better proportioned. The finish is exactly the way I discussed. I have had other woodworkers over and they all rave about the design, angles and sheer beauty of his work. If you are patient about time lines; I don't think you can find a better craftsman to build your desired piece.

    We are very happy that we run into Jim Eddy through Custommade.com.
    Jim took our desk ideas and transformed them into an excellent working desk. The quality of his wood work and attention to details is perfect.
    We now have a unique office desk that is spacy, easy to work with and gorgeous. Jim's choice or wood and leather transformed the tradional office desk into a life style statement.
    We are very grateful to Jim and looking forward to few other projects.
    By the way, Jim shipped this across the county and with no scratch.
    Many many thanks

    Working with Jim was a real pleasure. Not only did he promptly give us a proposal, but he fine-tuned it to our exact needs. The frames -- for large paintings -- are beautiful and well constructed. Jim delivered them to our home and installed the paintings with care. Excellent experience all around!
