Racked and stacked. After all the assembly work is complete it’s over to the finishing shop for a final de-nibbing in preparation for an oil finish. As some of the furniture will be used outdoors we have to add In an additional base layer of waterproofing and use an oil that contains UV filters to help prolong the durability against weathering. In all We use three coats of Osmo oil with the middle coat having a white tint, this x3 oil combination alongside our fine joinery offers a reassuring quality. Our furniture is built to last. .

No batch production would be complete without the intervention of the makers hand and his swift and methodical use of the sharpening stone, an essential skill of any furniture maker to master. The Workshop preference, once an initial flat back and edge has been established is to hone and polish using a 16000grit Shapton glass stone, its a very fine water stone backed to glass to keep the stone flat and offers the maker a chance to refine his tools edge sharper than a surgeons scalpel. Essential for shaving fine wisps of wood for that perfect final finish. .

One of the kings of batch production is the spindle moulder. Delivering consistent repeatable quality and being able to use a vast array of cutter profiles and accessories makes the spindle moulder one of the most versatile machines in the furniture makers repertoire. Shown here is Sam deep in concentration processing reclaimed timbers using the in/out feed drive making it a semi automated process. He is cutting double 8mm grooves for loose tongues which we use to join up our table tops which are destined for a new bar project with @box9design for @no17dickensyard .

From dimensioned timber off the planer we then process the sections on the panel saw. This is where the exciting or complicated (depends on how you look it) processes begin to occur. We cut a great deal of Compound angles in our workshop and although Often confusing as pure mathematical logic, through observations as experiments we gain the empirical evidence as to how best to implement and make select cuts LH/RH and then with a makers finesse cut the desired components. Of course being the modern craftsman we use CAD to aid our understandings of these complex angles
