Grain
Grain
Milled, joined, and finished to the sixty-fourth.
A workshop where raw timber is milled, joined, and finished into architectural millwork, custom cabinetry, and structural timber frames. Every cut measured to the sixty-fourth. Every joint so tight you can't find the seam.
Entropy in reverse.
Rift-sawn white oak selected for consistent grain run across 11-foot panels. Each panel matched by figure before cutting. Invisible reveals at every joint.
I ran my hand along the panel seam three times before I believed the joint was there.
Curved treads steam-bent over a custom form, then laminated for dimensional stability. Each radius matched to the architect's 3D model. Tolerance held to 1/32" across the arc.
They sent me a photo of the dry fit. That was the moment I knew this was going to be different.
Matching slabs bookmatched across the waterfall break. Brass inlay routed by hand, set flush, and sanded as one surface. Hand-rubbed Danish oil, three coats, buffed between each.
The brass sat flush with the grain. Not close. Flush.
From rough stock
to finished installation
Six-week standard lead time. Rush projects evaluated case by case. Every phase documented and shared.
Material Intake & Specification Review
We read your shop drawings. Every dimension verified against our tolerances before a single board is touched. Species selected, moisture content confirmed at 6–8% for dimensional stability.
Mill & Joint
Rough-sawn stock runs through the planer, jointer, and shaper to achieve the specified profile. Mortise-and-tenon, box joint, dovetail — chosen for the load, not the look.
Dry Fit & Quality Check
Every assembly dry-fits before finishing. Gaps measured to the sixty-fourth. If the joint isn't tight, it doesn't move forward. You receive a photo report at this stage.
Finish & Deliver
Raw, oiled, lacquered, or custom stain — applied in our climate-controlled finishing room. Pieces wrapped individually, delivered on a blanket-wrap truck to your site.
32 species.
Every grain documented.
Our species guide covers movement characteristics, finishing compatibility, structural ratings, and cost tiers — everything an interior designer or architect needs at the specification phase.
- —Grain pattern photography for each species
- —Moisture movement & stability ratings
- —Finish compatibility chart (oil, lacquer, stain)
- —Lead time and availability notes
The joint is only as good
as the drawing behind it.
Send us your shop drawings, a napkin sketch, or a mood board. We'll scope the project, name a lead time, and tell you exactly what we need to start cutting.
