Wood Dining Table, Kitchen, Farmhouse, Island Top

Our custom table tops are made to order, customized to the specifications you select. For fully finished tops, please allow 2-3 weeks for production and finishing, plus an average of 3-5 days shipping time. Our finished, DIY tops typically ship within 5-10 business days depending on customizations selected.

Step 1. We carefully hand select boards to construct the top to the size you selected. These boards are then milled and assembled into your table top. 

Step 2. The assembled table top is then flattened on both sides to ensure a flat, even surface resulting in a thickness of 1 1/2 - 1 3/4" thick. If the thickened edge option is chosen, they are built with the same process, but are built 6-7" wider and longer, resulting in approximately 3" outer edge thickness of 3 - 3 1/2" thick.

Step 3. The flattened top is handed over to our finishing team, who will trim it to its final size. If you chose a sculpted live edge, this detail is added on one or both sides. For DIY unfinished tops, this marks the final step before shipping, after which you will need to complete the following steps to finish your DIY table top. 

Step 4. The team begins by addressing any cracks and voids on the surface and edges (excluding the bottom) with an epoxy fill, utilizing a mixture of sawdust and epoxy to achieve a natural color. As the epoxy is sanded and reapplied, the team meticulously sands the tabletop until it reaches the desired finish quality.

Step 5. Ready for finish, the underside of the tables is coated with a Satin Lacquer finish, typically our custom builds are finished with Rubio Monocoat Oil + 2C, which offers a matte appearance , a very natural looking finish. As this is an oil finish, it is applied by rubbing the oil into the wood, absorbing and protecting against water, heat, and everyday wear. For clients desiring a glossier look, a commercial-grade satin pre-catalyzed lacquer finish is applied. Our pre-cat lacquer is applied by spraying on top of the wood surface, forming a durable, hard finished, acting as a barrier against scratches and moisture.

We aim for your delivery experience to match the exceptional quality of our products. Our table tops are custom-made to order, typically requiring 2-4 weeks for completion. Unfinished table tops are carefully packaged on a handcrafted pallet that exceeds the dimensions of the table top by approximately 2 inches in both width and length. For fully finished table tops, we utilize a custom crate that is generally 5 inches larger in both dimensions.

Upon receiving your items, it is essential to promptly remove them from the shipping crate. Store the items on sawhorses or a sturdy base to ensure adequate airflow around all sides, regardless of whether the top is finished or unfinished.

For finished tabletops, there are two standard finishing options that may have been applied. The first is a Pre-cat Satin Lacquer Finish, which is a durable commercial-grade lacquer. For routine maintenance, simply use a damp cloth with mild soap for cleaning, or a soft, dry cloth for regular dusting.

The second option is Rubio Monocoat Oil + 2C, an oil finish that penetrates deeply into the wood. For daily upkeep, Rubio recommends their Surface Care Spray Soap Kit. They also offer excellent customer service and a range of maintenance products to help you repair, renew, or refresh your tabletop in the future.

When cleaning a table top, it is advisable to wipe in the direction of the grain, typically along the length of the surface. This technique helps prevent scratches that can occur from circular motions or wiping against the grain. While our finishes are designed to resist heat and water, it is important to always place hot items on a trivet or hot pad to avoid damage. Additionally, using coasters for beverages that may sweat is a good practice to protect the surface.

Our furniture is made from real wood, and has unique rustic characteristics. Natural variations and imperfections in the wood are to be expected, these variations include grain patterns and figures, knots and inclusions and color variations. 

Solid wood expands and contracts due to changes in temperature and humidity. This natural movement does not affect the structural integrity and is not considered to be defective. Each piece we make is unique, and handcrafted, we are not providing machined perfection which can not be obtained in a solid wood product.

Q. What Is The Ideal Environment for Solid Wood Furniture?

• Temperature/Humidity: Furniture must be kept in controlled conditions with an optimal environment temperature ranging from 70 to 72 degrees Fahrenheit with roughly 30-50% relative humidity. If the product is exposed to extreme changes in temperature the following could/will occur – materials may contract and expand which will cause materials to “move.” This may cause checking/cracking and/or warping. None of the above conditions would be considered manufacturing defects as wood is a natural, breathing element that responds to its environment. 
• UV Exposure: Furniture should be protected from direct sunlight. Direct UV exposure will cause sun-fading or bleaching after prolonged exposure. Over time, there is a natural aging process and the finished surface will undergo natural color changes.
• Storage: When storing a finished or unfinished piece of wood, it is important it has adequate support to stay flat and there is good air flow to all sides of the piece. If left inside the packaging or placed with one side on a blanket or other smothering surface for an extended period of time, it is very likely the slab will move resulting in bow, cup, twist, and/or cracking.

Q. Can I Adjust/Cancel My Order?

• All Custom orders are processed promptly, typically on the same or following business day to ensure quick turnaround times. Once processing has been started, orders are not eligible for cancellation or refund, however, minor adjustments in size and/or finishing details may be possible depending on the initial order size, and the stage of processing it is currently at. (Any requests/changes to the order after it has been placed may result in longer lead times.)

Q. Can I See The Boards Used To Build My Table?

• Pictures show examples of the custom table top product, and are not the exact top you will receive. You can request to see the selected boards prior to the start of the table build for a $75 additional charge, which covers minor adjustments. Any major adjustments are up to discretion of the shop. Your table top will look similar to the pictures on the product, the grain patterns, voids and inclusions, as well as color will not be exact due to the unique nature of using solid wood.
