These are unpolished - as requested by the customer - and we are also able to supply polished chairs. Although these have a plain seat we are also able to supply chairs with a saddled seat or upholstered in calico (ready for a final cover from your upholsterer). The chairs were made from jarrah - an excellent choice. We are also able to make them from iron bark, redgum, elm, oak - you name it! ]]><![CDATA[Redgum Slab Island]]>Tue, 01 May 2012 23:15:38 -0800http://www.pdwoodcraft.com/1/post/2012/05/redgum-slab-island.htmlA customer brought us a HUGE rough sawn redgum slab with natural edges. Pete cut it to size, filled all the holes and two-pack polished it to a smooth shiny finish. The top of the island in the picture below is the result! There will be a lot of history and many years contained in the piece of wood used in the top. Beautiful.

Natalie (above) loves to get things orderly and Caleb (below) wishes he was already able to drive the CAT.

One day, son, one day!

Just brought in: a truckload of blackwood from the Mt Macedon area. Talk to Pete about your blackwood needs. We will mill to order.

Looking for large dimension timber? Pete recently milled this Aspen (Cottonwood) into huge 8x8 and 6x6 beams. Use them as features in your home or for large turned or carved work.
