Let’s try something new!

I made this table a few months ago and I’ve been unable to sell it. It’s just sitting here taking up space when it needs to be in someone’s home and enjoyed.

The top is made from some of the most beautiful walnut I’ve seen in over 12 years in the business. I would be willing to put this top on the base of your choice for $1000 plus the cost of the base. This amount covers my cost for the wood in this table.

The top is 2.5” thick and is 42” across.

Found a base on-line that you like? I’ll order it and install the top!

Want me to make a base? Let’s chat!

Let’s get this gorgeous table in your home or business! Call or PM me for more info. Thanks!!

****TABLE IS SOLD****

10+ years ago, I started making tables for the public. I don’t make many tables anymore because I’ve moved towards making smaller projects that I can ship around the US much easier than I can large dining tables.

I’ve made over 500 tables in that time frame and one table has always stuck out from the rest. Nearly everyone who has viewed this table loves it. I brought it to shows just to gather attention and begin discussions about custom projects. And gather attention it did. It’s been pinned on Pinterest thousands of times and still shows up very high on Google searches.

I set out to make a table using no electricity and old school craftsmanship and techniques - a mallet and chisel made all the tenons and mortises that make up the handhewn oak base. Reinforcing pegs holes were drilled with a hand drill. I made the pegs by hand. The finish is hand rubbed oil.

The table has been in storage as we thought we wanted to keep it for ourselves. I’ve decided that it’s time this beautiful piece finds a home where it can be enjoyed.

30” x 37” x 80”

Hand hewn reclaimed oak

Hand chiseled mortise and tenon joinery

Breadboard ends are mortised with slip tenons that allow for seasonal wood movement

The base separates into three pieces by the use of the pegs at the ends of the trestle. The base is extremely solid and does not move.

The price is $4500. No holds. Cash, check, PayPal or cards (add 3%). Will not ship, but I will deliver and set up locally if required.

The table can be viewed by appointment at my home / shop.

Please call me at (eight one five) 600 - 06five zero if you have any questions.

Thank you for your interest.

*****UPDATE***** Beam is sold.

I bought a large beam for a customer’s mantle, but they have now backed out of the project.

This is a great opportunity for you to get a fantastic piece at a price way below what I normally would charge. This is first growth Heart Pine! These beams just aren’t available very much and I was surprised when I found it.

The beam was 13”x13”x108” and was resawn to 9”x11”x108” for the customer. 2 sides are clean, while the other 2 sides still have the original exterior. Either side would look great and give 2 different looks depending on your preference.

I also can resawn the beam to whatever dimension you like. I have the 4”x11” x108” stock that was removed.

Would be great for a mantle or even resawn into lumber for another project.

Im just looking to get my money back at this point. The beam is $250. We can discuss the price of the cutoffs if your interested.

Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!!

MADE WITH PRIDE IN THE U.S.A!

Celebrate the 4th of July with a solid oak, hand crafted, made in America flag!

Now, more than ever, we need to show everyone that pride, courage and honor still exists and our nations colors will continue to fly with the bravery and breath of those that gave their lives defending it.

Each flag is hand-crafted from 1.25 - 1.50” of white oak and each individual star is hand carved. The piece is then sprayed with a clear finish that will preserve your piece of art. These are heirloom quality pieces that can be passed down to many generations to come.

Our Thin Blue Line flags represent those officers and law enforcement professionals who act with honor and courage who lay their lives on the line everyday while protecting and serving our communities.

Each flag measures 1.25” x 14” x 26.5” and is priced at $135

Show me a badge and I’ll take $25 off the Thin Blue Line flags! I’ll also donate 10% of all proceeds of Thin Blue Line flags to the Grundy County Sherrif’s office from now until the end of the year!

I’ll gladly ship a flag to you and can calculate shipping at the time of order. I will accept cash, check, PayPal or CC (in person or over the phone). In person pick up is also available. Depending on order volume, a lead time may exist.

CONTACT ME VIA PRIVATE MESSENGER TO PLACE YOUR ORDER . Remember to LIKE and SHARE for a chance to win a flag!

Your business is truly appreciated!

Help celebrate the 4th of July and show off your American pride with a truly one of a kind work of art!

Last Memorial Day, I made a flag for my house to memorialize those veterans who gave their lives so that we remain free. The positive feedback from the public after seeing that flag has been overwhelming. Many people asked if I had any intention of making them available to purchase. After some thought, I decided to make a limited amount and they are now available to purchase.

As you would expect from us, these are not your ordinary wood flags!

- Made from 100% reclaimed oak barnwood
- Averages just under 2” thick
- No two are the same
- Each flag is individually numbered
- All of the stars are individually hand carved
- Four coats of finish (front & back)
- Hanging / mounting options available upon request
- The best part is they are made with pride in the U.S.A.

2 sizes are currently available:

Small - 1.75” x 14” x 26.5” (approx. 21lbs) - $195
Medium - 2” x 22” x 41.75” (approx. 50lbs) - $375

I can accept PayPal and credit cards over the phone via Square with an emailed receipt and can to ship one to you. Shipping charges have been averaging $50 for the medium flag and around $35 for the small ones. You are more than welcome to pick them up at our location by appointment. Based on current interest, I expect to be sold out of these by next weekend.

Let me know what questions you have and have a great Holiday!
