How it’s Made
My process begins with harvesting wood, typically from my family farm. The wood that I cut is either from limbs that need pruning or dead trees that need to be removed; so it is all sustainably harvested. I then cut the wood to size, and in some cases add a colored epoxy resin to add to the aesthetics of the piece I will make. At his point, I cut, shape, and sand. This includes using variety of saws, lathes, sanders, and other various woodworking tools. I then apply a wood finish. For all surfaces that can come into contact with food, I use my homemade and all natural wood butter. For all other pieces, I use a polyurethane finish. Finally, I attach any hardware to the piece.
