A sweet pair of Cherry coffee tables. Reasonably priced, either one will look great in your home. Come to the Brooklyn Flea and pick one, or both up.
Perfect size for any room
Kick-A** Coffee Table
Just finished this stained Yellow Pine coffee table last night in time for the Flea this weekend. Come check it out, or better yet, take it home with you.
Walnut stained, Yellow Pine, roundish/ovalish coffee table. Middle board, which is in various stages of distress, gives this table an aged look and great character. Funky, hand-made, blackened steel legs complete the look.
Almost forgot, there are two butterflies featured in this table. One large and...
and one not so large.
Back to 29 Greene St. for More White and Yellow Pine
Early morning trip to Soho to pick up some shorter White and Yellow Pine beams. We have great plans for these great beams. Stay tuned!
One Man's Tree Trunk, Is Another's Art Work
The possibilities are endless. With some work, this will most likely end up for sale at the Flea. Ideas are churning already...
A Promise of Things to Come
Getting ready to mill a 43 1/2" diameter Sycamore and a smaller 24 1/2" Tulip. Just take a look at some of the spalt and wonderful grain properties they're sporting.

Yard Clean Up
We have been making a concerted effort at housekeeping at the mill yard. Resourceful Polo has been doing a bang up job at helping us get organized. We have created even more space to house logs and beams. Bring them on!
Our Favorite Task
We've had a great month with all the trees that we have recently sourced. Yesterday we acquired the two below in our neck of the woods, so to speak.
White Oak 37"x9'
Sugar maple 13'x37"

There Is Nothing Like a Pile of Walnut to Brighten a Rainy Tuesday Morning
Truly a sight to behold. The New Rochelle Walnut which was cut this past weekend, is now ensconced at the yard.
Adventures in Wood Turning
JT and I have plunged right in to the wonderful world of wood turning. We have a lathe, tools and plenty of wood to practice on. In our endeavor we also have an extraordinary friend and instructor extraordinaire - Alan Adler. We're loving it!
Turning a platter from Applewood
JT's live edge Walnut bowl. She's very proud of it.
As We Were Driving in Hartsdale...
We came across the Hartsdale Canine Cemetery which was the first cemetery of its kind established in the U.S. in 1896. Who knew?
Some famous animals have been laid to rest in this lovely cemetery.
And some maybe not be so famous but were no less loved and cherished by their owners.
And Those Mushrooms Keep Popping Up
Every day we are more and more intrigued by the variety of mushrooms in our yard.
This one looks like a tomato
Some grow in clusters and others are solitary
But all are fascinating
And beautiful
New Rochelle Walnut Tree
The Walnut tree which we spotted (and wrote about 11/24) in New Rochelle is now headed to our yard in Hartsdale. Big and beautiful, this tree will yield some great slabs.
From Our Family To Yours
Happy Thanksgiving!

Got a call this morning about this Walnut tree coming down. Raced over to stake my claim.
