From Driftwood to Furniture!

Reclaimed Spruce and Fir Conference Tables with 1.5 inch Iron Pipe legging.

 

Driftwood Plank Salvage.

Found five of these true 2x12 spruce planks last week, went back for the first one today. Over 16 feet long, still damp. I cut it approximately in half and hiked it to the Volvo in 2 goes. Nice day for it.

Custom Order Driftwood Hemlock Super Pull Knife Rack.

These Super Pull Racks are made utilizing a premade magnetic toolbar assembly that is made right here in Portland. I create a channel for it to lie in, then cover the ends with a little tenon block, then create a veneer than covers the magnets but leaves the steel contact edge exposed. The result is a really strong pull in a beautiful piece of wood. This one went off to Tuscon yesterday, is 22 inches long and made from a piece of driftwood hemlock. 

Driftwood Spruce Shou-Sugi-Ban Bench. $175.00

A nice wide seat entryway bench, 48 inches long, 15 inch seat depth, and 18 high. The Shou-Sugi-Ban technique is achieved by burning the outer surface of the wood slightly, then rubbing with oil, in this case, polyurethane.

 

Driftwood Red Oak Bench. $295.00.

A gorgeous combo of art and functionality. All made from the same piece of oak, harvested by me and slow dried for over a year. The legging joints are double mortise and tenon with compound notch, all carved from the existing wood, no dowel rods, no buscuits, no screws. Just handcrafted joints and glue. 60x12 x 18 high, sealed with oil based polyurethane.

The creation of wooden art, a custom order live edge Oregon Myrtle and driftwood bookcase.

A ton of work and love went into this piece, my customer works on a crab boat in Alaska during the winters, this summer he is spending his hard earned loot on custom furniture, he loves my style, and when I came up with this design, he was all about it.
