What furniture starts out as...

So yeh, of course my furniture starts out as trees. But when a client requests I make a certain piece of furniture I go straight to my local hardwood lumber supplier and THIS is what I pick from. This picture would just be one rack with a selection of the basics plus some exotics too. There are MANY more stacks of lumber to look through and I carefully select lumber for each and every project. Sometimes I have my lumber supplier special order something and it usually comes in fairly quick. Something like 8/4 curly maple or 6/4 quarter sawn white oak or 5/4 zebrawood might not be something the have laying around, ut they will get it for me!

Heirloom knife restoration!

Yeh, we do that too. Not on a regular basis, but sometimes a client shows up with a special knife that was their grandfather's or some other relative and the handle is all broken. So we fix it all up good as new!

Here's a picture of a piece of wooden ammo I did for a good friend of mine from Lothar Walther barrels. He took this picture at SHOT Show a couple yrs ago. I still do the wooden ammo if anyone needs a custom piece. Lamps and furniture incorporating it too.

Triune Cutting Boards

OK folks, this is my new signature cutting board design! Nothing earthshaking or anything, but three inlayed pieces of various wood in one corner in a line. These ones are walnut but sometimes I will use laminate maple as well and other contrasting woods. I just wanted to do something to set my cutting boards apart a little and give them some character! Enjoy!

2013 News!

Hello everyone!  Everything is going well at WCWW this spring.  Last Fall the Fryeburg Fair went great and work is coming in steadily.  We are getting ready for the Newfield Farmer & Artisan Market which opens May 25th.  Stop in and say hi!  I won't be there June 1st or June 8th but then should be around most saturdays.  We will have a display up at the Gorham Savings Bank branch in Falmouth on Rt 1 in August and will of course be in Fryeburg again this fall.  Oh, and I do not have the dark green F250 pickup anymore.  We invested in a 2013 silver F250 Crew Cab pickup and have a cap for it too!  It will make deliveries and installations way easier in the coming years.  Thank you all for the support over the years and come visit soon!  Chris

2011 UPDATE!!!

Well, I'm still here! The last year has been a challenge and struggle for our family, with layoffs and cancer being the biggies, but we have powered through with the love of God and super supportive friends and family. Thank you all for your support! So, despite me still being in treatment through November, I am beginning to get caught up on work that is 6 months old and getting some new stuff in the pipeline! It felt so good to get back in my shop after 3 months of not setting foot in there. Wow. I will try and get some new pictures up here soon. You can also find Wild Cherry Woodworks on FaceBook too. Many places to see what I am building! Take care everyone and thanks again for the support!! Chris

Here are two matched cabinets for TV and stereo components and a plasma TV on top. We did the stained glass as well in the doors. The cabinets are cherry from the northern Maine woods.

Caliper boxes




These are boxes I made for some ammunition handloaders to store their tools in. Cherry with tiger maple panels and laser engraved viking skull logo from the .50 Beowulf forum. Any size could be done to hold most anything. Lasering can be done or not, with whatever you want!

Custom fitted firearm carry case



Custom carry case for a Wild West Guns .457Magnum Master Guide rifle. Fitted sections for optic, two pieces of rifle, and a box of ammo. Case constructed of Peruvian walnut with a cocobolo inlay. All hardware is solid brass hand mortised. Spline miters strengthen the case and add an interesting detail. .500 caliber bullets act as "feet" when case is standing. Inside of top is leather from this client's grandfather's tack shop. I try and incorporate as many unique details into my firearm cases and displays as possible, as these are very personal items to the owners.

Nightstand in Peruvian Walnut & Birdseye Maple



This nightstand has a gentle flair of the legs and one handy drawer. All mortise and tenon construction with dovetailed drawer. The birdseye maple had a lot of figure,
which is not shown well in this photograph.
