Nards do you pics of your cabinetry? [/quote]

I’m obviously not Nards but here is a wine rack I made for customer earlier this year. Solid white oak, this thing must weigh 400lbs. Its about 72" by 50" or so.[/quote]
How much?
Can you make it in cherry?
Can you ship it to Texas?

Not joking[/quote]

Haha, I could just make one in Texas sometime. This one in particular went with 3 similar ones and the total bill was about 8k for all 4 wine racks. Cherry would be a lot more money just in materials. Me and some guys are doing a library out of Cherry Veneer right now, pretty beautiful stuff.

Very nice!


White oak fireplace cover and mantle. It didn’t come out as nice as I wanted but its not too bad either. My joinery was a little off. Locked miters are new for me and not very fun.

Actually I would prefer more of a traditional bar set up but with these dimensions to go against the wall in the new house.

I dont drink wine really

That sounds like it could be really cool Derek. Have you ever used google sketch up? If you have an idea, its free and not too hard to use. It is similar to CAD so you can draw up plans on it and give them to a woodworker and have it made. Just gotta remember light woods darken a lot with age.

Skyzyks, thanks for the compliment man.

Awesome work USMC. Quality craftsmanship is hard to find these days.

Volunteer fire fighter/first responder.

Raise chickens.

Gardening.

Rebuilding my 99 prelude also at the moment.


You’re welcome. I haven’t done much finesse work for a couple of years, but I can certainly appreciate it.

So Derek, how are you set for windows?

That is eye boggling in a great way.

Can you do one with a Cowboys star?

Stars can be done

So you own a flooring company?

Plus you are WAY up north


No I don’t own a flooring company. Those were done a few years ago when I worked for my dad. He is a finish carpenter. He moved to GA two years ago so he is closer obviously. I work in a corporate environment now, he took all the machinery down south with him haha.

He could potentially do it, I don’t know if he would want to travel to TX to do a custom floor, he is kind of busy, but I could find out if you were really interested in having a custom floor done. He could also do any other custom finish work, kitchens, bathrooms, stairwells, etc…

Awesome looking window SkyzykS, another example of fine craftsmanship.
