Making stair treads from reclaimed pine in the shop today. We specialize in custom runs of millwork for any size project.
@hartwoodroses I like using this Plugging Chisel for digging out mortar. I don't do it often, but I use one for my chimney flashing work. My local brick yard keeps them in stock for about $12. (Love watching your progress)
Lots of Locust peeling this week in the shop. 2 different approaches but both effective. Jesse is using a draw knife and Hugo is employing a bark spud. To each his own! #historicpreservation #handsplit #locustwood
SOLD! Our beloved clamp rack is headed to a new home. It's a great machine, but we almost never used it. Put 2 master carpenters in charge of crating and there is no doubt this package will arrive safely to it's destination.
