A previous client asked if it would be possible to have a secret door to their study manufactured out of Sapele and fitted and still be able to hold a selection of their favourite books.

Here I was asked to manufacture a set of five bar gates out of Sapele for a client in the Hampshire area. The gates also recieved a two coats of a UV protection oil be fitting.

These box frames and sashes were made using traditional joinery methods. Due to the windows being fitted in a listed property in the Winchester the sashes were constructed with all mortise and tenon joinery. While the box frames were constructed with housing joints as existing.

Here we have a Birch faced ply spice being manufactured using handtools for a bespoke kitchen larder unit that I manufactured, sprayed and fitted for a client in Winchester.

Here is a project in the Fulflood area of Winchester. One side of an existing soft wood porch on a property in this area had started to rot out. I was tasked with the job of rebuilding and replicating this section of porch with traditional joinery methods. As the section was to be decorated it was decided to remake this section out of Sapele. A hardwood i use a great deal for external joinery due to its durable qualities.

Its always a pleasure to work on all the old buildings around Winchester. Here for example, a local decoration company had been working on the externals of a beautiful property in the Clifton Hill area of Winchester. The decorator discovered rot in an existing section of an ornate barge board on the property. Here I am just running the mouldings on the section of barge I had machined up and replicated for the property.
