One of the best parts of fully custom work - you get exactly what you wanted. For this client, it means a pub-height family game table complete with 2 shelves for the games, integrated footrest on lower shelf, and Ash with interesting design elements.

Love taking on some challenging boards between table builds. Great time of year for butcher blocks under holiday meal preps.

Why put your tasty holiday turduckin, ham, or brisket on a beat-up butcher block? Between table builds, I take on some higher end butcher block projects like these.

This steel frame was designed with comfortable seating for >= 8 in mind, so the legs favor the outside corners, giving lots of room for 3-4 chairs along each side and 1-2 on each end. Finish on frame is bronze powder coating and this time I used tough plastic inserts for the feet so it wouldn't do that nails-on-chalkboard thing if moved on concrete.

To those who voted on what I call the “Crowdsourced Table”, it’ll be awhile before it’s built. I’m now focused on a table for the mama of the best home builder around- Greg Dimmer. Greg has more connections locally than most, so it’s a tremendous honor to have his trust in the design & build of this project. Any guesses on what he asked for, based on just this photo of the steel base parts?

Side project for my patient wife - a necklace cabinet for the master closet. 1 necklace per hanger makes finding the right one MUCH easier.
