As well as painting I dabble in woodworking. Specifically I build rustic farm-style dining tables, coffee tables, desks, beds, entertainment consoles and other items. With dining tables I only build the table and bench. What some of my customers have done is then buy contrasting chairs at Ikea. My basic charge is to take the cost of materials and double or triple (depending on time and complexity) which means a dining table and single bench will be about $600. If you are interested send me an email.
NARROW CONSOLE TABLE - 30"(H) X 37"(L) X 11"(W) - I really liked the colour on this one. Turquoise paint and two different brown stains. I'm making a matching coffee table.
FARMHOUSE STYLE DINING TABLE
August 2, 2020 - My recently completed table arrive at its new home in Calgary today. The colour looks great against the grey wall and looks much better than the construction photo in my garage.

LEGO TABLES
Just finished a couple of these for my neighbour. 46" x 46" x 18" lego tables. Only problem is that they are a little pricey. The grey lego tiles (15" x 15") cost about $18.00 each and you need nine per table for 46" x 46". Many people just take an old coffee table and glue them to the top and that way you can get by with six.

RUSTIC FARMHOUSE STYLE DINING TABLE
Just finished up a rustic, farmhouse dining table. 32.5" (W) x 72" (L) x 30" (H). Made from some reclaimed barn timbers that were about 50 years old. Table is $250. I've also got a matching coffee table for $50. And yes, I'm basically giving them away. I obviously don't ship these but if you are in the Edmonton area you can easily pick up. This is a relatively easy build. If you would like one contact me and let me know the size. SOLD JUNE 1.

RUSTIC END TABLES
Just finished a couple of end tables. The top was made from a very old, weathered 2 x 10. All I did is sand it very lightly and then apply two coats of oil finish. I really like the look. SOLD

QUEEN SIZE RUSTIC BED WITH NIGHT TABLES
Finally finished building a farm style rustic double platform bed with two night tables. This was a lengthy project and my most complex build to date. The staining and painting to get the antique look was very time consuming. I first stained entire bed dark brown and then applied two coats of a diluted grey paint (50:50 water to paint). It is diluted so it can be sanded more easily. Once dry I carefully sanded in spots to allow the dark brown underneath to show up. Finally finished up with three coats of semi-gloss varathane. The two night tables were then built to match the bed. Thanks Teena for the order.

BENCHES / PICNIC TABLE
Just about finished these neat benches that fold and convert to a picnic table. I just need another coat of stain and they are done. Total cost was $60 for the wood and about $40 for the hardware. SOLD

CAMPER STYLE PLAYHOUSE
Camper playhouse I just finished at my son's home. Fun project but a little challenging building the curved ends. Still need to build the door and put in the windows. I purchased the plans for this from Paul's Playhouses. He has some amazing playhouses. Take a look.
