Spalted Hackberry Glass River Dining Table
This piece was our most recent delivery and an absolute treasure to create. Our clients were thoroughly involved throughout the entire process. They helped pick slabs, layout the glass, design the legs, and determine which finish would work best aesthetically, and to help with the chaos of their grandchildren! This was an all-around amazing process and we couldn’t be happier with the result.
Two salvaged black walnut slabs with a 12" blackened steel center piece surrounded by 6 custom made walnut dining chairs. This client and I worked together for over 6 months designing, building, and finishing this piece exact to her specifications.
Named after one of many latin words for 'beginning' this table is kind of what started it all. Our very first original and unique piece of furniture is also one of our favorite to make. This design uniquely blends our metal fabrication background with our passion for custom woodworking. This piece is made with recycled white oak and scrap steel square tubing. (photo - ryan dearth)

This is undoubtedly the most meaningful project we have ever completed. A little over 2 years ago this wonderful family called me and said they desperately needed help. The 250 year old maple tree in their front yard was dying and had to be taken down. They had seen my work at a local craft show and wanted to see if I could salvage any usable lumber. 3 days later my sawyer and I hauled away 12 logs and milled up almost 100 pieces of recycled goodness. 27 months later, and here are two of those slabs. This tree had a lot of meaning to this family and seeing their reaction was an incredibly rewarding experience. It was also a great reminder of the purpose for this business. We kept thousands of pounds of nature out of the landfill and we can now create pieces for years to come from this tree.
