I’m excited to welcome a new collector to Anderson Woodworks.

They’re new friends we met after moving to our new town—through a few game nights and local festivals. After spending some time together, they reached out about a new coffee table. Normally, they would order something from Williams Sonoma, but this time they asked a simple question: Could I build something similar, but sized specifically for their space?

That question is always an honor.

We talked through proportions, use, and materials, and decided to move forward with a custom piece that fits their home—something they simply couldn’t order off a shelf. They chose walnut, which meant a trip to one of my favorite places: Edensaw. I’ve been working with them for over twenty years, and it’s still a joy to walk through their stacks and select lumber for a new project.

At this stage, I’ve milled and glued up the top and cut three of the legs. Next comes the joinery. This piece is moving along quickly, and I’m excited to see it take shape.

More to come soon.

If you enjoy my work and want to talk about a custom piece or a new art idea, I’d love to hear from you.
