Been awhile since I’ve had a moment to stop by the creek.
Just finished installing the 1st kitchen using the oak I cut off my land. It was air dried for a year, then kiln dried for two weeks.

The shop has been very busy. Starting on a china hutch today, and have 4 more kitchens lined up so far. The Mini Max machinery has performed very well. I've learned allot about running a business & how to budget, since going on my own in June. A decent sized kitchen takes me about 5 weeks from design to install. I build everything myself including the counter tops. Scheduling has been the biggest problem to overcome. I have two contractors that I have been working with that have started getting me involved in the beginning of the projects instead of two weeks before the clients are ready to move in. All in all things are going well, might even get a little time to do some bow hunting or slay a walleye, just not today.
Take care all
