From seed, to sapling, to cedar. The process of creating something functional and aesthetically stimulating from one of the world’s natural resources is like no other.
I hold an aptitude for designing and creating, and have the vision, practical thinking & hands on skill required to produce results.
I hold proficient CAD skills within Sketchup and can quickly make up drawings ready for use within the workshop.
I am effective in the planning and execution of projects, and am able to specify and foresee materials required. This is true both within my event work & carpentry.
Designing and crafting something functional is personally one of the most rewarding processes. This window was made with bridle joints, and finished with a round over, & cove router bit for aesthetics.
This piece was requested to match an existing cabinet within someone’s kitchen.
This piece is made from 18mm oak board and finished with a clear furniture wax. The hairpin legs are welded from steel rod.
This surround was commissioned for a large projector screen to adjust its aspect ratio.
These prestigious Ernest Race Antelope chairs were restored and altered to a more desirable colour. Paint was colour matched with authentic paint and applied with an air compressor and spray gun to achieve a mirror like sheen.
This kitchen was fit with ash worktops and up-stands. A 1/2 inch router was used with a flush bearing guided bit in order to create curves and cut outs.
Custom units made to match new kitchen units were also made from MDF.
I have a good working knowledge of woodworking techniques and processes, with practical hands-on experience in building personal & professional projects. I am a safe and efficient worker who can produce excellent results based on project briefs. I have an approved certification in health and safety from the Institute of Occupational Safety and Health.
