White Oak Media Console
A low white oak console with sliding doors, soft reveals, and integrated cable management.
Rooted in craft
Power when it helps.
Hand tools when it matters.
Primal Woodworking is where I document the pieces I build, the details that matter to me, and the occasional finished work I make available for sale.
Walnut, padauk, purpleheart, bloodwood, ambrosia maple, bird's-eye maple, and wenge each bring their own temperament. The design begins by listening to the material.
