lots going on ...

 lots going on so far this year .. 
we've got four projects wrapping up now.
one of them left for California yesterday and the 
live edge table left yesterday morning.
one of our classic mid century modern tables ... more of them here
the cad drawing

before the finish ... finished photo coming soon ...
 
next up, a claro slab table with one of our classic steel bases
the bases are 1.5" thick steel, cut on a waterjet ...
  
the bottom needed some work and some steel reinforcement.

and the base pieces were ground, polished and patinated 
with a birchwood casey gun blue/black
the top had some cracks and we added some butterflies and epoxy fill ..

the slab on the goodhope website
and today we delivered three more chairs to our long time friends
we made four for them in our two different styles
back in november  ...
hats off to kristian here !
they are 'thinking about' a new table in the future  
 
and below we are working on a reclaimed chestnut desk
for a long time local client ..

there is nothing easy about this one ..

 

we are using a 'stain, red paint, black paint finish that we 
often use on our painted windsor chairs
the two board sapele top will be a sanded version of that formula

next up ... a  bed with a live edge headboard ... 
off to visit with the clients tomorrow ... more after that ..  
a photoshopped mockup here
site visit today, drawings tomorrow ...
