BENCH UPDATE All the drawers are now in using some heavy duty slides from @leevalleytools The full bench is nearly complete. What to finish:... - drawer fronts and hardware - install front vise - apply hardwood trim around boarder of the top Im contemplating whether or not I want to apply finish to it but time is tight. Do you apply finish to your shop builds?

How did you celebrate New Years? We got this great spread from @charcuterieboutique as a Christmas present and put it out on to an ebonized ash board I gave Melissa for Christmas. More shots of this board to come because it’s really cool!

CUSTOMER PHOTOS This river table was picked up by the customer and assembled at their place. We used some simple metal legs from @shifurniture so that we didn’t take too much from the top of this piece.... They are still struggling to figure out what chairs to get for this table but be assured, when they do, we will get some more great shots! What kind of chairs would you put around this table? @ Barrie, Ontario

MINIMALIST DINING TABLE This table is done and in its final location! Would love to hear your thoughts on this piece. I made it using some solid pieces of ash I had sitting around the shop. It’s interesting to see the different shades of ash from different lots.... Either way, this table looks wonderful in this little dining nook! It was finished was @osmocanada polyx matte oil finish and is levelled with some @rampatec inserts and feet. @ Barrie, Ontario

THE CAKE STAND Have you seen this piece I made for Kristine over at @pbonaspoon? If not, you need to go check out her page - especially if you’re a peanut butter lover like me. I think other than myself, Kristine has the most @pompousfoxwoodco products in her house!... Looks for something similar? I’m all sold out of spots for Christmas, but will continue to take charcuterie/cutting/serving board orders until I’m out of my stock. Once it’s gone, I will be focusing all my efforts to my true woodworking passion - custom furniture @ Barrie, Ontario

FINISHING I love natural wood. You can’t beat that look. Do you? Or do you like to add some colour? Generally I prefer natural wood as it comes in so many colours and appearances. You can pick and choose the wood species based on what you like!... But I know, budget also has to be considered which is where staining generally comes in. Finishing this solid ash table with @osmocanada ployx matte and followed this process with some buffing. We just brought this inside today and it’s looking amazing!

DETAILS The grain and colour of this dining table bring a simple elegance to this dining nook. Add some black chairs, and matching pillows, and this boho dining nook is complete. ... What’s your dream dining table look like? Simple and minimalist like this, or something more extravagant? Let me know in the comments @ Kempenfelt Bay
