I had a client contact me recently about a small project, they wanted a special gift for their husbands birthday and had some ideas for form and function but other than that let me run with the design! It’s always fun figuring out a design and adding some of your own style. But most of all it’s always nice when the client is happy and appreciates the end result!

“I was so pleased with this custom shelving handmade for my husband’s ink collection! The details are lovely and obviously crafted with care. I highly recommend Corbett Lumber Company for any project big or small!”

VOTE BELLOW! The pine tables are coming along BUT I’m hung up on finish…
For finish my plan has been a dark stain on the base, maybe ebony, and then a warm brown for the top. But what I’m torn on is whether to distress the wood and lean into the weathered rustic pine aesthetic, or to keep it fine and smooth.

Someone recently asked what kind of jobs I’ve been working on lately, and after telling them this was my first week back in the shop- I realized that I never showed the last project I had worked on, so here it is, king sized elm beds made from a chicken scratch drawing.
I learned a lot working with elm, I had only ever used it one time before on a decorative box for my mother. It is a more difficult wood I found out, some people call it squirrelly because it seems to warp an twist a lot and on top of that it’s grain seems to almost wrap around itself making planning and even hand plane use dangerous due to tear outs! But I’m always up for a good excuse to buy a new tool so I bought the cabinet scraper.
Two beds were made, I got a really good deal on the elm from for the cabinet scraper from and the colour was a wood wax from

You ever have a project that you just keep putting off?
I started this oak banister for our home 3 years ago, I even had it clear coated and ready to go… or so I thought.
As soon as I took the rails outside into natural light I saw how the water based clear coat made this red oak look pink, and NOT in fact the matching warm brown of our oak flooring. So I learned a lesson, make test samples for colour, and try them out in your home in different times of day, because shop lighting at 9 pm in winter is pretty deceptive.
So- I milled the all down, and now I’m just getting rid of all the milling marks before I finis the final prep for finishing. Learn from my mistakes so you don’t have to make your own.
