Ron Shufflebarger,
Fine Woodworker:
•
Builds and works with
almost all furniture, cabinets, and display fixture items both
commercial and
residential.
• Does
repair and
refinement of antique furniture, always with the goal of retaining the
look and function that makes it
unique.
•
Designs pieces to
fit the client's actual needs in function and appearance.
• Works with most
styles
and periods of furniture. Though Stickley, Macintosh and Danish
are favorites, he has done
many
Southwestern, Victorian, Early American, Oriental, and Shaker pieces.
• Works with all
species
of wood, preferring domestic species because of environmental reasons.
•
Also works with plastic
laminate, manmade sheet goods, and detail work with brass, contrasting
inlay, and leather.
• Makes shop/approval
drawings for reference and for the client to see at no charge (for those
jobs which entail a
large amount
of time, a price will have to be negotiated).
• Will go to the
client's
home to see styles that are present in order to compliment, get
measurements, and possibly
add to the
functionality of a piece. |
