Molding &Turnings

Tailored pieces for residential, commercial, or restoration needs

Moldings

Moldings are versatile, straight wood pieces machined with intricate profiles along their length, adding elegance and functionality to a wide range of projects.

These profiled strips can transform plain surfaces into sophisticated designs, providing both decorative appeal and practical solutions like covering gaps or protecting edges.

Available in standard lengths or cut-to-size.

Applications

Our moldings excel in numerous settings, while being both decorative and functional.

• Architectural Interiors: Elevate homes or offices with trim that complements flooring, cabinetry, or paneling, creating cohesive designs in kitchens, living rooms, or entryways.

• Furniture and Cabinetry: Add refined edges to tables, shelves, or custom built-ins, enhancing durability and visual appeal for woodworking enthusiasts or professional cabinetmakers.

• Restoration Projects: Match existing moldings in historic buildings using our precise milling techniques, preserving authenticity while meeting modern building codes.

• Specialty Uses: Beyond traditional applications, our moldings can be adapted for unique needs.

Types

We offer a diverse selection of molding profiles to suit various styles and requirements:

• Crown Moldings: Curved profiles installed at the junction of walls and ceilings, ideal for adding a touch of grandeur to rooms. Available in simple ogee shapes or more elaborate dentil patterns.

• Baseboard Moldings: Flat or contoured strips along the bottom of walls, protecting against scuffs while enhancing room aesthetics. Options include colonial, modern, or Victorian styles.

• Chair Rail Moldings: Horizontal bands placed at chair height on walls, preventing furniture damage and allowing for creative two-tone paint schemes.

• Casing Moldings: Frames around doors and windows, providing a clean transition between surfaces. We craft these in bullnose, beveled, or stepped designs.

• Custom Profiles: From quarter-rounds and coves to picture rails and wainscoting caps, we can replicate historical patterns or design unique ones based on your drawings.

Turnings

Often referred to as spindles, are round wood pieces expertly shaped on a lathe to create symmetrical patterns around their diameter.

These components bring dimension and artistry to structural elements, perfect for staircases, furniture legs, or decorative accents.

Applications

Our turnings are designed for reliability and beauty across multiple uses.

• Staircases and Railings: Essential for balustrades in homes, offices, or public spaces, providing structural support while enhancing visual flow—similar to the precision we apply in our hoof blocks for stability.

• Furniture Construction: Ideal for legs on tables, chairs, or beds, offering both strength for everyday use and customizable shapes to fit antique reproductions or contemporary designs.

• Decorative and Architectural Accents: Used in porch columns, lamp bases, or gallery rails, adding a handcrafted feel to interiors or exteriors, with weather-resistant options for outdoor applications.

• Specialty Projects: Adaptable for tools, such as custom handles, or for hobbyist crafts like model building and musical instruments.

Types

Each type can be produced in various diameters and lengths, with smooth finishes or added textures for grip and style.

• Balusters and Spindles: Tapered or ornate shafts for stair railings and balconies, available in straight, barley twist, or fluted designs.

• Table and Chair Legs: Sturdy, turned supports with options for bun feet, cabriole curves, or simple tapers to match any furniture style.

• Dowels or Posts: Precise cylindrical pieces for joinery or newel posts, ideal for secure assemblies in woodworking projects.

• Ornamental Elements: Custom finials, handles, or knobs with intricate detailing for cabinets, lamps, or artistic installations.
