Festive shop upgrade.

Installed a 2.5" thick solid Ipe bar in New Richmond, Ohio. I mention the thickness because . . . If you know. . . . You know this weighs a lot. The good news about this bar is that it will not float away in a flood.

In a few months this will be a great place to try some spirits.

Last week, we held our first open house. Over the past year and a half we have been converting unused space in our building to formal offices and meeting areas for clients. What began as a simple "white box" project evolved. The space is full of bespoke furniture and furnishings made by us. Examples of different materials (metals, woods, solid surface, etc), types of finishes, metal working, glass, art, etc are used throughout the space.

Our soft (friends and family) open house went great. Couldn't have asked for a nicer turnout or a better event.

I want to give a special thanks to
(framing, drywall, paint, hanging lights, managing sub contractors, etc).
for paint, fixtures, moral support and frequently telling me, "I would do the exact opposite, John"
for supplying an amazing spread of sandwiches, charcuterie, veggie/fruit trays, etc
for the branded cookies
for shirts, hats, vinyl decals for the doors, etc
The team of people that hang out with me and help build this thing each day. Lets go!

From concept to fabrication to installation . . . We can make just about anything. This past week we installed a series of glass and steel partitions in a lovely home. Scroll through to see the original rendering. Super clean work from the fellas on the install.
