- All my products can be made from any of the listed wood species.
- All exotic wood species have been sustainably harvested under the guidelines of the Rainforest Alliance (see information under “Sustainable Forestry”)
- All domestic wood species have been sustainably harvested. When available I use woods harvested by local tree services that would otherwise have been cut up for firewood or mulched. I also sometimes find beautiful reclaimed lumber sources stashed away here in the South.
- Other wood species are available by special request.
- I am able to customize and to personalize any product upon request. Customization will be billed at my hourly rate. I also am able to design and develop with you your unique projects: “My offerings are limited only by your imagination.” Please contact me with your ideas. subject line “SWS Custom Project”
- All wood species are subject to market pressures and fluctuations for both availability and for price. Some exotic species have become very expensive and difficult to obtain because of global supply-chain disruptions and market uncertainties.
- Prices are subject to change without warning.
- I am doing everything I can to keep my prices accessible and the quality of my work at the highest level. I use only the best materials I can obtain. I make every effort to source my materials from American manufacturers. My work is guaranteed against defects in materials and workmanship: If you are not satisfied with your purchase or if it fails you because of my craftsmanship please contact me and I will work with you to make it right.
- On this webpage I offer a number of designs for Charcuterie Boards and serving trays and other products which I offer in a number of choices of domestic and exotic wood species. Because of the many options available to you I ask that once you have had a chance to think about which pattern of serving board or other creation you would like and what species of wood you would like it to be fashioned from you would please contact me either by email or by text so that I can work with you personally to create your project. This will also allow us to discuss any personalization that you might like to include.
