Recently Don Patterson (Touchwood) completed an entertainment center on commission for me.
The EC is built from spalted post oak and quartersawn white oak, all of which was logged, milled and kiln dried on my farm.
Don's craftsmanship is superb, and the photo's don't really do the EC justice.
Post oak can be a difficult wood to work with (frequently used for pallet material) - especially when you're not working with FAS boards! I really liked the rustic look of the spalting, knots and other defects, and Don was kind enough to tackle working with some very challenging boards!
The final product was well worth it though.
Thanks Don!!!
