Restoring a family heirloom. The wood was actually rather pretty once all the cracks, and imperfections were repaired. The Rubio coat will keep it looking great for another 70 years! My mother sat on this stool with my grandmother in her Uncles bar. The Village Inn, Poy Sippi WI. That was in the 1950’s. It will now reside in my shop where it will continue to get utilized.

What an exquisite piece of hard curly maple. Hard to part with such amazing pieces of mother nature’s splendor.

Black walnut cutting board. Special build for a great man.

“Josh this is simply exquisite!! We were blown away!!! And then when Sarah and Christina realized we had you make those chacuterie boards – we all just cracked up!! By far the most beloved gifts!!! Also, I don’t know if you realize that the gorgeous copper- tone inlay on the cutting board literally looks like the shape of Castle Rock Lake, which is where this is going!! It’s wild!!! Just beautiful, Josh!!!”

Was working in the shop the other day… Really fun time building these two sided serving trays/Charcuterie boards. These are destined for California for some very special customers.

This was a remake of an old sign that someone had on an old piece of land. They wanted to surprise their father with it so asked me to recreate it.

What a great feeling. This has been one of my favorite builds and the smiles upon delivery made it totally worth every minute of cutting, sanding, and finishing.
