Dining Table

Several months ago we were looking for a dining room table. After weeks of searching, we found a couple of tables we liked at Pottery Barn. Unfortunately, they were wierd sizes. We contacted several people asking if they would be willing to build us a table that had the look of the Pottery Barn tables but to our size specifications. We finally found somone that was, not only interested in building it, but also thought had the skill level to pull it off.

Tim Little, Built to Last Woodworking, (541) 342-6133, has been working on the table for about a month now. He took the time to do some research on the tables and found that in order to achieve the right look he would need to acquire some yellow pine which, of course is hard to find on the west coast. Tim did some more research and found some reclaimed yellow pine from an old wharehouse in Tennessee. What a nice guy, we are so glad we chose him. The extra effort really made a big difference.

He recently finished putting the table together and we went to go take a look at it on a recent trip to Eugene. It is awesome, exactly what we wanted. Tim is definitely a crafstman.

Next, he's going to distress the table and stain it (same stain as the cabinets, doors, and trim). It should be a perfect match. If you need any custom or outdoor furniture made, we encourage you to give him a call.

I'll post more pictures when it is completed.

Took a drive to Eugene and picked up the table. Turned out great! Should work perfectly for us. The table is still wrapped up in bubble wrap, so I'll post a picture later.
