Our philosophy concerning machines is......
As I describe in more detail in the Philosophy section, we are not impressed by the strident claims of some that it is the use of "hand tools" that imparts quality to their work. We are doubly skeptical of a shop that offers a broad line of furniture through a multitude of dealers that insists that its work is indistinguishable from "handmade"
Our time, talents and efforts are best spent on design and detail. We also spend at least 30% of the total time invested in a piece on the finishing process. The final finish is composed of over 8 distinct applications of finishing material. We use the finest finishing products available. Many of the processes that we use are acknowledged among experts to be the best. They are not used in the furniture industry, or for that matter, by most individual craftspersons. The reason is simple. They are too time consuming and require the close attention of a dedicated person to succeed. |
