Finally got sealer on the new cutting board. 30"18"1 1/4", made of hard maple and beech.

Spent part of the day sanding this cutting board.

Gluing up a new cutting board today.

While large projects are always great, some of the most interesting ones are the small projects, like rings, bowls, spoons, and cutting boards.

Spring and summer are coming soon! Now is the right time to order your new patio furniture to prepare for outdoor entertaining.

These custom desks, in black walnut, were built for a Culver City startup. I can build one piece of furniture for you, or 25 like I did for them, or anywhere in-between.

This custom dining room table and bench, in white oak, was built for a large family who loves to entertain. It easily seats 5 adults in chairs and 4-5 kids on the bench, or 8 adults if kids aren't at the table. Let me know if I can help you entertain with a custom dining table to fit your family's needs.

This custom gate, in Philippine mahogany, was built last year. Contact me if you would like for me to build your custom gate too.

If you need Custom Woodworking done for the upcoming holiday season, now is the right time to get your orders in. Do you need a new dining room table for Thanksgiving? Let's make that happen. How about a new bed for your guest room, so your in-laws aren't sleeping on an air mattress when they visit you this Christmas? I can do that.... Do you want shelves in your garage to store the Halloween decorations you'll be taking down in 2 weeks? I'll make that happen.

Here's the beginning of a small, Spanish cedar lined, walnut veneered humidor. Tomorrow I'll be affixing the thick, shop made veneer to this cedar liner that I glued up this afternoon.

Remember everybody as you prepare to cook thanksgiving dinner, "Sharp tools are dangerous, but dull tools are more dangerous." I will be sharpening knives for Thanksgiving from now through Wednesday, November 26. I charge $5/ knife, $7/ knife that needs regrinding, $10 for most serrated blades. No minimum if you bring your knives to me, $35 minimum for a house call, in the LA area. PM to set up an appointment. And remember, "Keep your fingertips tucked"!

I made a batch of playing card holders today. They are $5 each in poplar; $7 each in maple, cherry, walnut, or oak; custom woods available upon request. These might make great stocking stuffers for your budding tabletop gamer.

Mark and Donna's new mantle installed. It's made of rock maple with a mahogany stain and shellac finish.
