Choosing Timber & Allowing For Timber Movement
Solid timber is a natural product, every piece different and unique.
You may think that a piece of bespoke timber furniture is just a piece of wood, but there are many different species of timber out there, and each has unique characteristics and qualities. As a hygroscopic material all solid timber will constantly equate to it’s surrounding moisture conditions throughout the seasons and take and release moisture – allowing for this is an integral part of the design of our pieces. We use both select (knot-free) and feature grade timbers and note this as quoted. Allowing for timber movement in designing and making furniture is essential.
Also there exists natural variations in wood, including knots, cracks, colours, gum veins, worm holes & grains. These are individual to each tree and are not considered to be faults, in fact, they serve to make every piece individua on its characteristics This means that different wood types are suited to different uses. Timber choice is a very important part of our design process. We stock a variety of beautiful slabs and unique timbers. We source from local timber getters and sustainably sourced suppliers. When built with quality joinery and construction methods solid timber is an extremely hard wearing and quality material for furniture. The cost of the wood used in furniture varies, mostly driven by availability but also by beauty and fit for purpose. Most importantly is to keep in mind is that being a natural organic product, timber will keep “breathing” moisture in and out, depending on conditions and its surroundings, therefore allow for timber’s movement is crucial. It will do so until it reaches a point of Equilibrium Moisture Content (EMC). All producers of Solid Timber cannot predict where an item will be placed or conditions that the item is going to be exposed to. Therefore, we can’t be responsible for timber movement, we can only provide the best advice if it does occur, so please get in contact with us.
Changes To Your Order
As each piece of furniture we produce is made to order, custom built & handcrafted to your choices and selections, an order may or may not be changed, depending on what stage of the process it is. Any alterations must be sent in writing and Currumbin Woodworks will consider the best way to assist you. If you order is already in production, changes will be not guaranteed. Any changes made to custom orders will incur extra costs. If the customer requests any changes after the order is completed there is no guarantee it will be accepted and if it is considered will have to be re-scheduled according to existing work.
Production Schedule
Once deposit has been paid and an order has been placed into our system, your project will be added to our schedule of works. Lead times will vary according to demand. Timeframe will depend on how busy the workshop is at the time. The first few weeks will be all about confirming the design, working out all the details, ordering & receiving material. It all comes together at the end!
