Costa Rica!

Working out the Bronco lately.

We recently got to work with again on painting their Ice House building for a past due spruce up! Of course it was a pleasure to work with them and be a part of something bigger in Lubbock Downtown Arts district. Many thanks to for the boom lift. We could not have executed this project so quickly and cleanly without it. On to the next project.

This little project was a doozie but came out pretty sweet! Accent divider walls with felt inserts and ebony stained oak. Along with 76 acrylic ‘birds’ suspended across the space. A very meticulous few days.

Our free hang double shelf system was a hit! Super strong, clean, minimal and most importantly functional. Built from 3/16” steel and 2x12” pine, polyurethaned with a semi gloss coat. I liked them so much I built two for my shop! 📐 Here are a few pics post installation.

Upgraded the saw today! 👹 Never thought I would see a full size 12” saw that runs on a battery. Only makes my whole Milwaukee system more useful and worth the investment. This thing is a beast and will whoop my 120V DeWalt on any cut! Pro tip: Buy quality tools once and never loan them out.

Custom hostess stand built from rectangular tubing and an old cedar plank pulled out of The Nicolett. Finished with gun blue and a cedar/linseed oil topcoat to preserve and enrich the natural materials. She might be small but she’s stout as can be! will open to the public next week. Give them a follow and see what an exclusive fine dining experience is all about!

This project shaped up very nicely. Our clients had a 70’s era home that needed updating without losing it’s original charm. This one is a phased out project and has more to come, but is definitely becoming a shining example of taking your time and doing it right.
