A very experienced team who create reclaimed wood furniture made of (old growth) wood from another time (found in beautiful Ontario pioneer barns).
Love for the story of the wood has made us the leading provider of reclaimed wood furniture in Ontario. Start by browsing our website, including our (detailed) daily blog, and social media. HD was the first to introduce the leap of epoxy + polyurethane finishes on reclaimed wood surfaces in 2009.
Authentic Ontario Barnwood Character
We keep original character marks that confirm authenticity: square nail holes, weathering, broad axe marks, bug holes, patina, staining from organics...everything. We maintain + preserve with our natural epoxy + polyurethane clearcoat options!
I have a customer that want me to do a round table from reclaimed lumber my first question is he wants a metal strap around the table and doesn't want to see any bolts hanging out of it he's wanting a nice clean finish to it. so I'm thinking maybe counter sinking Wood screws in it. What do you think? Okay and my second question is if I do an epoxy top on a round table with reclaimed lumber wouldn't it have a chance of cracking when the wood expands and contracts. She wants the saw marks and the nail holes in it but wants to make it easy to wipe off and eat off of. What would you recommend?
This video is so very helpful. What a great finish!!!! I love the protection that the clear epoxy of your choice provides to the wood, but I don't want the dipped in glass look. I like how you squeegee it over to make it thin then spray satin clear over the top. Do you use a poly based satin? Do you think the epoxy down?
What an inspiration to see. A very pleasurable video. I felt happier about life seeing all this beautiful furniture set in such a calm, understated format. It is an excellent means of appealing to the type of people who value the timeless character of hand-made reclaimed resources. On that note may the world rise up with fierce gentleness against the concept of disposable anything, All things should be made to endure beyond the life of its maker. Bless you for this wonderful peaceful moment in time.
