Made and installed these Walnut Floating Shelves a while back, finally was able to get some beauty shots of them all decorated.

Using .brackets and solid 8/4 Walnut from , these beasts could survive the apocalypse!

With Integrated COB LED light strips and a lightly sanded rough sawn surface finish, I think these shelves add a great level of rustic warmth to an already awesome office!

Thanks to & for having me back in for this project! Looking forward to the next! Coming soon👀?

Pantry Renovation!

Been planning this project for well over a year, probably ever since we moved into our home in 2022 if I’m honest.

Previous shelves were much too narrow for the cabinet boxes, which put way too much pressure on the plastic shelf clips. Can’t count how many times a shelf has collapsed from snapping those dumb clips.

Organization comes hard to me, so if I can build a system to make it even 10% easier, I instantly feel the benefits.

Simple drawer boxes made of 3/4” poplar with walnut plugs to hide the screws. Finished with bees wax. Quick project, but fantastic result and effect!

Beautiful Coffee Table from an over 10” thick large Elm Cookie. Resting on 4 inset post legs to give an almost floating appearance. Black resin filled in soft wood and wonderful void cause by the joining of two trunks left open. The inside was hollowed to a consistent 4” thick all around to reduce weight. Lesson learned, use a sharp chainsaw blade…

My Magnum Opus of 2023! Finally getting around to decorating it properly and snapping some pics. I have been planning for this project for nearly 2 years now. Saving, collecting, and practicing for all the steps required to successfully pull this off. These two BEAUTIFUL reclaimed barn beams both have very interesting history, which just adds to the statement piece I believe this turned into. Clear coating the steel legs and leaving them just slightly imperfect, to me, pairs wonderfully with the earthly feel the beams emit.

The perfect example of why you never throw away any scrap wood! Made this beautiful walnut cheese board for my dad’s birthday with the help of my .official D1 Lazer. Engraved an image of my parents house as well as my logo on the back. Turned out perfect if you ask me.

Gonna tap myself on the back for this one! This is definitely the most ambitious project I’ve taken on thus far, and in my opinion, it payed off! Stunning walnut slabs paired with maple and backlit walnut accents, and custom welded steel legs.
Putting all of my skills to the test: Using CAD to render and prototype designs, traditional woodworking techniques, my developing welding skill, and many more.
I am always more attracted towards a challenging project!
Still have a few finishing touches to complete: Mic Booms will be mounted to the table tops with quick release adapters for easy configuration, multiple pop/up charging stations, and all the cable management. Wanted to do a test run with the table as is so that the client can get used to and setup his equipment in a manner that works best for him.


Check out my client and his Personal Training Business-Development Podcast: to learn and progress in both the world of business and personal training.


Slabs purchased from and raw lumber is from . They both always have tons of high quality inventory and tons of knowledge to back it up.

Another project under the books! This beautiful slab of Buckeye Burl paired perfectly with an abstract addition of translucent black resin. Welded the legs myself too! Really enjoying each project I do that gets me more practice with the welder!

A bit of a simpler project this time around. More of a repurpose of materials actually. Acquired a massive 34”x96” butcher block slab from a family member that was being used as a desk in a factory. Found a circle within it that had no holes, cut it out, sanded, stained, and sprayed satin lacquer. Pretty straight forward! Just had to complicate it by welding up custom legs! Can’t complain with the chance for more practice though, and it turned out great!

Signed, Sealed, Delivered! First project with the new welder has been completed.

Finishing the set, this Live-Edge Maple TV console makes for the perfect sibling to the Maple and black resin Coffee Table I made last year for my good friend and talented graphic designer, photographer, and videographer .graphics / .walls.

Learned a ton from this project, most note-ably how not to rip a slab into two. But in the end, was able to make the whole piece from one 2 inch slab split into two if 1 inch thickness and sectioned/notched to fit into the 4 welded leg frames I put together.

A bit of a change up coming out of the shop. I think walnut scales and brass pins make for a perfect combo to restore these two kitchen knives back from their deathbed!
