I know what you're
thinking, Bob, why is there furniture on your
website, you're a bike builder. True, but I'm really
just a builder at heart. I make a lot of things, but
furniture has been popular lately. I do sell this
stuff as well, but it's not well suited to shipping
so it's really best for local customers.
It all started with
needing a new bed frame, then people saw that one...
Most of what I've been
building is steel frame furniture, but I do some
woodwork as well and mix 'em together too.
It's all custom, just
like the bikes. The bed frames are fairly similar
from a functional point of view, but can vary
depending on your tastes. The two beds shown here
are welded construction, mostly 2" square steel
tubing. Typically these run about $6-700 depending
on how much steel I need.
The entertainment
center shown is totally unique designed around the
specific items going in it. The finish on that one
is a little more unique. It appears to be bare steel
with sanding marks left in it, but really it's got
several tinted coats of translucent paint and clear
to protect the steel.
Got an idea you've
wanted, let me know, I can probably build it. Most
of my work is very contemporary and very sturdy!
The finish shown here
to the left is my most common, it's a black oxide
coating on the steel with several coats of lacquer
clear over it. The coating is fairly black, but
shows the shimmer of the steel through it along with
hints of gold and dark orange in certain lighting.
It's a neat effect that most seem to really like,
however all kinds of finishes are available.
