Here’s a gate made by Rumen Ginev.  He sent us the photos and these comments: First a HUGE THANKS for maintaining such impressive stock range at great prices! All materials except pebbles on the photos are from you: timber, pavers, steel angles, mortar and even fasteners – timber screws and bolts. The gate looks amazing! Solid,  nicely squared and easily maintained, … Read More

The frame is Jarrah and the middle section is 6mm hardwood ply. Below shows the inside of the case and was before it was sanded and … Read More

With space for a couple of natives poking out the top it’s an interesting piece and far better than dropping the steel off … Read More

As the main piece of furniture in the bedroom, your bed defines the space. It also tends to be the most used piece in the house.

Russell built this DIY dining table out of some of our hardwood and we just love it! It’s the perfect rustic addition to the main dining area and kitchen where stone and polished concrete feature heavily.
