Priorities

It is all a matter of priorities. the thunderhead that scared mike

   We carefully hand make furniture of uncompromising quality. At every point in the construction process, we have your satisfaction and enjoyment in mind. In fact, I can say unequivocally, that we set such high standards for ourselves on a day to day basis that the overall integrity and quality of construction are no longer matters that we need to be inordinately anxious with.

  We put the bulk of our attention and concern into the matching of the wood grain, the detailing, the comprehensive design, and a flawless finish.  

  We cut many of our own logs from the timber on our 160 acre Tree Farm, and carefully select the rest. I personally saw out each board, on our Mobile Dimension Sawmill, with an eye to the factors that will cause problems at a later date. We carefully air dry, then precisely kiln dry all of our lumber in a state of the art dehumidification kiln. Electronic moisture sensors closely follow the speed and amount of the drying process to insure flat, stress free lumber that will stay that way permanently.

   We have opted for only the machinery necessary to allow us some freedom from drudgery. We never utilize a mechanical process when a more careful, hands on approach will yield better results. This is evidenced by the fact that despite owning sanders of all sizes and shapes, we still have more than a dozen hand planes scattered around the shop, and the floor is littered with the shavings from hand planing the various components, where that course produces a better result.

 

04503e40    The cost of the final product is going to reflect both the cost of materials, and the time and attention needed to insure lasting quality.

  As a customer we ask you to provide us with the wherewithal to continue our efforts, in our modest environment, by fairly compensating us for our investment, skill, and time. We, in return, will provide a lifetime of utilitarian value, esthetic satisfaction, enjoyment, and enduring memories for you and your family.

Expensive? Maybe ........ A fair value? Certainly ......
