01 — the gallery
the work,up close
Tight crops of the trade rather than a slideshow of finished rooms: hand tools, timber and the line they follow. Jobs change size and shape; the way they get worked doesn’t.

02 — plates
seen from afoot away
Three plates from the bench. Enlarge any of them if you want a proper look at the timber.
Shavings off an edge. The board comes down by hand until the pencil line has gone and the edge sits flush.
Hand work where a machine has no business going — timber taken back slowly to a scribed line.
The same stroke, hundreds of times over: the plane run flat down the length so nothing rocks when it’s fitted.

the useful photois yours
A phone picture of your door, frame, staircase or run of cladding tells us far more than any of ours. Send a couple with a rough size and where in Liverpool you are, and you’ll get a clear price for the work.
