Custom Cabinets, Shelves, Cases and Other Wooden Creations

Welcome to my site of custom-built wood creations. I will build items like this for you. This diverse collection includes cases, shelves, cabinets, stands, frames, doors and even beds. And they are all being used. None of these creations has been posed in a designer home; they are either shown installed or before being handed over to a family member. Some of those in use are dusty and a few even have cobwebs -- and you'll see how they look in a home with down-to-earth people responding to their own practical needs.

Pergola from the northeast in full summer. It has been raining and sunny but not enough time to get the grass down.

Starting on June 12 with all the native northern white cedar.

First sticks up, June 13.

Roof beams, June 13.

All the verticals done, now laterals. June 14. The grapes are still tangled at the base after waiting three years on wires.

Most laterals are done and it is time to wind the vines up through the remaining set.

The vines are wound into the laterals. June 15.

The grapes have recovered two weeks later, July 1.

Facing east from the outside, the slate down, and new grapes planted on the west side.

From the southeast.

From the northeast.

Lettuce planted in the northeast corner, July 2.

Grapes are just budding at this time.

The older grapes loved the pergola and reached to the top within a week.

From inside, facing east toward the house. August 15.

Mid-August grapes, not red yet.

Facing southeast looking at the grapes coming in.

Grapes are already taking over half the top of the pergola.

The grapes are three years old and the pergola was built around them.

From the east. The native northern white cedar is whitening and being taken over.
