Custom Millwork
I did a lot of custom work, for designers, contractors, and
millwork distributors. Even though the jobs may not have looked as impressive as
the big units, I really enjoyed the challenge of duplicating old work, or making
new products to a designers specifications.

Building this canopy trim required custom-made router bits,
and turning the corners on the lathe. It was used in a designers' show

lathe work! |

The pattern for this screen was brought to me by a retired
medical missionary. He said it was from a Korean temple. |

They don't make them like they used to. So, I had to do it! |
