Custom Closet

I designed and built this closet, including the lighting components and the new hardwood floor.

16-foot Koi Pond Bridge

I built this bridge over a koi pond at a private residence. I use CAD to design most projects before building them. An image from the file for this bridge is shown below.

Custom Walk-in Closet

I designed and built this master bedroom walk-in closet for a complete home remodel by Dreamcraft.

Custom Bathroom Vanity

I designed and built this to match the vanity found in the client's previous home. However, I built U-shaped drawers directly under the sinks. Most vanities have a dummy panel in that space, since the plumbing prevents the installation of a normal drawer.

Custom 12-Drawer Dresser

Custom Scrap Wood Dresser

Built with scrap laying around the shop.

Custom No-Hardware King Bed

I constructed this king-sized bed for a customer who wanted a bed that could be put together using no hardware (no bolts, screws, or the like), so that it could not squeak. I had to take special care at the place where each of the long members connnects to the rest of the bed, because this short-grain wood is quite weak. I laminated a slice of wood with the grain running in a perpendicular direction to the wood on either side of it, which gives the structure more strength than if it were made of a solid block of wood. The customer wished to keep the color of the Alder hardwood natural. It was finished with a matte protective top coat.

Custom Built-in Breakfast Nook with Storage

Custom Hardwood Business Sign

This customer wanted a sign that was identical to her conference table. Installation and electrical by Dreamcraft.

Custom Black Walnut Chair

Custom Writing Desk

Executive Seven Drawer Mahogany Desk

I custom designed and built this desk out of mahogany hardwood. It features seven drawers with locks, two pull out flat surfaces for writing, and several hidden compartments (I reveal this information with the customer's permission, and at his suggestion).

Teak Storage Bench

Custom Walnut Stairs

I laminated, milled, routed, and sized some locally sourced black walnut to make these stair treads for a new custom staircase. Dreamcraft did the design, finish, and installation.

Handmade Tambour Keepsakes

I made these using a variety of hardwoods, including walnut, ash, alder, oak, poplar, mahogany, wenge, ziricote, and sapele. When you pull the front drawer open, the tambour door rolls back in its tracks to open the main compartment.

Custom Floating Walnut Shelves

I used a torsion box design to make these shelves substantial but lightweight. The floating shelves surround a fireplace and are three inches thick.

Custom Mahogany Shelves

I constructed these shelves, which were designed and installed by Dreamcraft.

Handmade Cabinet, Custom Mid-shelf Bureau, & Router Stand

Custom Storage Bed

CAD Construction Drawings

I use CAD to develop most of the pieces I build. Here are some samples from that.

Fireplace Mantle

I designed this custom fireplace mantle for a home remodeled by Dreamcraft, in midtown Atlanta.
