About Me

I design, build, and install custom furniture and cabinetry in Chicago.  I've worked in the industry for about 8 years, with most of my experience building custom furniture.  Most recently, though, I have ventured out on my own to build custom furniture and cabinetry.  Check out some of my work, and feel free to get in touch!

after reading your advice - i have a question - i have dining room chairs which are stained that i am going to scuff sand them and as you advised getting the benjamin moore fresh start primer - however when i went into the paint store to get spray paint - they sold me krylon black gloss - the salesperson said if i went with black satin there was a good chance that some of the  paint would rub off on clothes? is this true - will the black gloss look nice and how many coats do you recommend.  thanks

Thanks for adding me as your friend!;P

Thanks for accepting looking forward to more of your work - it is incredible.

Your work is VERY impressive.  I hope all who enjoy it can appreciate the skill and talent that go into this hand crafted art.  It's fanastic!

Thank you for accepting my friendship.  I've looked at your designs and they are such a work of love and art . Honestly, I couldn't think of one thing I would add in any way. Just PLUM PERFECT!

Thankyou for your input.

I have been taking a wood shop class at my son's high school, and decided to make the cabinets at class.  Looking at your profile, you seem to love wood as much as I do.   I love the photo's of your work too.  Thanks for your advice.  N.  

Hey man, can you help this member out?

Thanks so much!  Here's what I ended up doing... http://www.curbly.com/celee/posts/296-Revitalizing-an-Old-Rocking-Chair

Would you recommend that I use the spray lacquer on gloss laytex?  I bought steel wool 0000 but found that it did not do much for me.  Any recommendations on what I can use it for?

yo, this question is right up your alley.
