When it doesn't come back that means you're supposed to take a nap.

Took the day off so I could wrap-up some frames, and she is so happy I'm home.

Sometimes when I rip (for length) a piece of oak I am rewarded with some amazing veining... Cant wait to get these poly'd.

Great new XL pad. This new Kitty City pad measures 15x15. It is huge. Cats will definitely make this a lounging and napping area.

She wasn't a cat person, but you can still feel for a couple Corgis who won't understand.

ALL STANDARD DESCRIPTIONS AND DETAILS FOR LARGE AND 15 DEGREE INCLINE FRAMES IN REGULAR LISTINGS APPLY HERE. I made this frame outside of an order because I found a board that had some odd dots on the edge it. I dont know what caused it, but obviously something sat on the board at some point after

Love happy customers. I want people to feel as though they would have happily selected & purchased the item in-person.

Working out of my home garage, biggest issue I face is space. Volume as well as horizontal surfaces for pieces underway. I've actually had to delay starting frames due to simply not have space to keep those in-progress.

On that note... I am suspending new orders for a couple weeks while I spend some time cleaning-up and reorganizing the garage. This includes getting some odds-n-ends out of the way.

Recently made new-paint frames... Never finished frames... Cancelled order frames... Even a couple frames where I accidentally mixed Aspen and Pine from two frames being built at same time.

The major difference with these frames is that I will be paying the shipping. It means I won't be making anything whatsoever on the frames, but I am not going to just toss pieces of wood into the trash.

About time to fire up the saw... Warn the neighbors!

Just kidding. I am in a townhome, but I do respect my neighbors, the rules, common sense, etc. And my next door neighbor is amazing.
