Welcome to our new Fine Woodworking blog. Here you can join our team on location as we craft furniture, rebuild some of the classic homes in the Bay Area, and design, build, finish and install custom bathroom cabinets, custom kitchen cabinets, entertainment centers and home theaters, custom closets, home offices, custom hand made furniture and the list goes on. It doesn't matter if you are an aspiring craftsman or a home owner wanting new insights into home construction, we are here to teach you our techniques, share stories, and we welcome your feedback.

The small lidded vessels are made from remnants
from the custom cabinet shop. The lids and finials are made from recycled
flooring taken from a construction site. The other bowls came from urban trees
that were cut down by a fellow that keeps his trucks and equipment next door to
our shop. All were turned wet (freshly cut) and allowed to dry. Most of the time
as they dry they shrink and deform, sometimes cracking. The woods include
pittosporum, live oak, cherry and avocado.
