This is an "add on" project. My customer found some stainless steel swivel stools that matched his decor but he wanted arms and they weren't availble from the chair maker. The seat is maple and we made arms to match and cut two inches off the legs to achieve desired height. We can make modification to furniture to make it do what you want too. Bring us your issues.

This is a remodel of an owners piece. This maple chest was being used as a side board or server at a vacation home. The owners wished that the piece had greater top area and asked if leaves could be added to each end. We made maple leaves and supports for each end. Additionally we tighted the case, refitted the doors and spray painted the piece black.
