Shown here are some of the Shaker / Shaker influenced items that
I have made. Workmanship is high quality with a combination of machine
tool and hand tool usage. Many of these pieces are 100% hardwood
construction; some do use modern materials for cost/esthetic decisions.
All are custom pieces made to fit a specific requirement.

This is simple bedside table. The single drawer is designed
to open by pulling from the bottom (no drawer pull or handle).
The top features a Corian insert for appearance and durability. A matching Corian shelf adds to the table usefulness. Construction is mortise and tenon with hand cut dovetails in the drawer. Wood is maple with a lacquer finish. |
| This six drawer chest is mostly Shaker in design. All dovetails
are hand cut. Side panels are flat with a thumbnail on the frame
edges at the panels.
The back is ship lap construction. Drawers are traditional construction with solid wood bottoms. The base features hand cut mitered dovetails and a large thumbnail on the top edge. The top cove and slightly undercut (tapered) top tend to make the top appear thinner and lighter. |
