These Two Hands

My neighbor wanted a box to dress up his ag sign. He drives John Deere’s, so the color was an easy choice.

Custom sign for a client.

I was commissioned to save this old farm table that had extensive termite damage on the top and legs. Double-tap fumigated, tung oil coated, four rounds of resin to fill voids, sculpting legs back to shape, and blending paint to match. This unique buffet is 7’x3’ and was worth saving.

Restored this secretary hutch for a client. Repaired broken trim and a split on the side, reattached secretary shelves, added drawer handles, cleaned lock, restained knicks, and gave it an overall polish.

Two porches and a barn makeover. I’ve done a lot of home improvements over the years that I rarely post, this is the last one… except for my own home. I’ve gotta learn how to say no and stick with my plan; making knives, woodwork, and restorations out of the shop. Time to take it easy on myself and work in the shade.

Did a favor for a neighbor with some needed home renovations. Previous carpenter made this porch entirely out of untreated pine, in short time all those window sills are so rotten you can poke your finger thru a 2x4. Due to the high cost of.. everything, I gave them a low cost alternative of strengthening the plates and uprights without replacing the whole porch.

Dining table for a customer made from live edge walnut slabs.

This old curio cabinet came in missing a leg and shelves, had a non-functioning lock, and needed some love to restore its former glory. Got it all sorted out for the client.

Client brought in an assortment for repair. Broken letter opener tip repaired, stuck mechanical screwdriver operates smoothly, and old favorite little screwdriver renewed. These types of restorations are generally cheap and fast, if you’re local to Aberdeen, NC give me a call/text/email and I’ll take care of it.

This curio cabinet got some shelves and an overhaul for a customer.
