Feature timber ceilings are a great way to add value to the outside alfresco area of your house. Here in Australia the most common timber used is Western Red Cedar, but we do occasionally get request for different timbers to be used for this purpose. This was the case recently where we had a customer who wanted to have a timber ceiling made out of American White Oak.
Sometimes doing the same thing can get a bit boring, so it is nice when you get a request from a customer to produce a product that leaves you scratching your head and asking yourself "how am I going to make this ?" This was the case recently when a customer wanted us to make a 40mm diameter handrail our of Victorian Ash.
Sometimes the simplest looking jobs can prove more challenging than you think. This was the case recently when we were asked by a customer if we could produce a rebated timber capping.
A post mould surround is a great decorative add on to your verandah post.
The post mould surrounds that we manufacture come in 2 forms. The first is one that is already made up to drop over a post that is either 90 x 90mm or 115 x 115mm; which obviously means that it needs to be installed at the same time that the post is being installed.
Up until a 10 years ago we didn't do a lot of dowels, as we didn't have the right equipment to make them on. After investing in the necessary machinery, manufacturing timber dowels is now a large part of our business.
We have just added 6 new wooden corbels and carvings to our range. 3 of them are based are based on the 1 design, but in different widths of 175mm, 85mm and 70mm.
Then there are 2 detailed carvings that would be a great addition to a fire place or kitchen mantle.
Tapered timber plugs are used in mainly to plug the end of pipes, particularly water pipes. Until recently most of the plugs we had been making were for pipes that were 50mm in diameter and less; but following a request from one of our customers, we have gone larger .... much larger.
