I’m now officially part of the Urban Wood Network. My intent is to continue growing my stock of slabs and trees pulled from local yards and property to build sustainable wood furniture and other projects. Let me know if you have questions or projects.

When you choose wood, you choose a natural resource that preserves and sequesters carbon from our atmosphere. You bring the beauty of trees into your home or office. And, every time you choose wood over composites, plastics and metal, you potentially create an heirloom that you can pass to future generations. Whenever you choose wood from urban sources, you also keep trees out of landfills and biofuel plants. If you are ready to learn more, contact me.

I have stickers! If you haven’t dried wood before, stickers are pieces of wood put between freshly sawn boards and slabs so they dry evenly. I have a stack of logs waiting for me and now I have stickers stack the slabs.

That is a square cut. I’m preparing this slab to be re-sawn for a book matched plank. I love this process of using trees I find locally to make beautiful objects.
