I'm doing a job on Lake Nantahala, nice place here in the mountains, I saw a Bald Eagle two days in a row, I never saw one in the wild before. I was pretty cool, I thought

I was out there last year for the first time since I was a kid, loved it. I have been toying with the idea of moving out there and doing my contractor thing as well as starting up a good workshop again and turing out period 19th century furniture. I looked into it, apparently the economy in Adams County has not been good for some time, and not the best even when times are good. Great area though, lots of history and beautiful land.

Very Nice. Cookie Cutter with mid grade appliances and cabinets but very well done. I especially like the way you finished out the Cabinet Crowns!!!!

Re: Post A Picture Of Your Current Job.


Thats a clean job!
Is that a painted cabinet or a foiled door?
Do you have any close ups of the crown detail?
Is that lazy susan the kind where the doors spin with the carousel? If so does it have some kind of anti finger pinching feature?
Did you build those cabinets?

Ok I think thats enough for now

Well Thanks for the kind words Malco
The customers set a budget of $70,000.00 and we went from there.
We put in all new windows & doors,lighting,flooring and such.
They went with a Viking d/oven & cooktop and then scaled back to Kitchen Aid on the rest.Travertine flooring,$40.00 sg ft granite,paint grade cabinets & smart shopping got them everything they wanted,so all in all things worked out well.
We do 90% of our work cost plus 20% and almost all work by referral so budget jobs don't bother me.
The crown detail came about because the original soffits were not deep enough for crown without coming out right to the edge ,so i just took a 1x4 and routed a edge that matched the crown and put that on the soffit,then applied the crown.

Those are painted cabinets,heres a picture of the lazy susan.
No I did not build these cabinets,I have a custom cabinet shop that does most of my work,it's cost effective,makes the job go faster and really he builds a better product than I can in the field.Millions of dollars of equipment he has shows up in the quality he produces.We install them. The blue tape is the customers paint punch marker

I give them Kudos for the Viking!

I have to stand corrected. From the pictures, I have a 22" LCD, the cabinets, they look "out of a box". My Mistake. I do apologize!

A Beaut!

Do not think I have ever seen one with an actual Sliding Rail Lift on the boom! I am more accustomed to the conventional versions.

I don't know if Lulls were always orange, but when I got this one several years ago, it was an off white, what paint it had....I paint all my equipment construction yellow.

I bought it from an eBay auction for $2000....and it has served me well...if I was to buy a teleboom, I would keep the old girl anyway...it has never failed me yet.
