Here are pictures of a kitchen I built last fall and winter for clients who renovated their DC rowhouse. I understand this kitchen style to be called "Transitional."
I did all the woodwork including cabinets, shelves, drawers, and trim as well as the banquette benches and radiator enclosure with sliding doors.
There are few more details given along with the photos if you are interested. Enjoy!

Ah the sound of frying bacon in the morning...making lumber racks for my shop.

I built a clothes holder. Here are a few pictures.

This month I am building a pair of platform beds, one for a customer in walnut and one for my house in cherry. I looked at many designs but didn't find any I liked as much as this one from Allan Little aka AskWoodman.

These are the legs that form the structural foundation of this sturdy frame. So far so good.

If woodworking is something you are interested in, AskWoodman's YouTube channel is an incredible resource. With over 1000 videos (not a typo) on a wide variety of projects and techniques, Allan offers a raw, uncut front seat to craftsmanship at its finest. He has also quickly responded personally to many questions I have sent his way. I cannot recommend his content highly enough.

A day off school and a new project to start mean a staff trip to my favorite lumber store - CP Johnson Lumber in Culpeper, VA.

I made this 9 foot tall ships ladder to access a loft space in a house. I tried to show as much detail as I could of making this piece from design to construction to final install. Please feel free to leave a comment or ask a question. Enjoy!

Check out some pictures of final finishing, workshop cabinets, solid wood panel making, and child labor.

Here are exclusive pictures from the inaugural week of JMCFC. Built some unique poplar drawers for a bathroom vanity, got underway on an oak loft ladder, and worked on finishing some drawer fronts for a full kitchen that is almost completely done. Also got a little snow today that made for some good photos. Enjoy!
