Not Just Killer Tables!

I took on a huge project, at such a bad time.. I half regret the choice, to build it.. But, the outcome is is pretty fantastic!

Probably the toughest build yet, and definitely the longest.. Not because of design or lack of skill.. It's just that I had people coming to view the house.. Documents to sign.. Open house.. Ugh. It was just bad timing. My own fault. And had I known.. I would have waited, until after the move.

That being said.. I know the client, and wanted to get this big bastard done! She'll love it. Assuming it fits in her truck.. I so, hope it fits..


This exact model is certainly not available, by the way.. It's definitely one of a kind.. However.. That being said. I will most likely have a similar model, once I am back up and running.. Maybe a bench / coat rack.. With storage.. Maybe.. I don't know yet!

Did I mention the house is sold?!? Sell with Keller Williams. They are very dedicated and knowledgeable! Not your average slithering, shifty Realtor.

Thanks Michelle and Rob! <3

Escape from London

My time in this city is quickly reaching it's joyous expiration date. Killer Tables will inevitably be packed up, and buggered off, to another location. Good times!

Will I miss London? I dunno.. I met some pretty awesome people here.. But, there's certainly no shortage of weirdos, either.. I only hope the normal, human folks don't mind a quick burn down the highway, to visit the new shop. <3

Down to business:

My absolute, very last custom order is out the door! From here on, there will only be "inventory" coffee tables. That's 4'x22"x17"H  standard. There's just no way to guarantee the pickup location of a custom order, at this time.. And I am going to avoid that argument, like the bleeding plague.

Sorry, if that's a bit of a bummer.. It's just how things is. We'll inevitably get over this sadness and move on with our lives, though. I promise. Things will turn around for you. They will.

Keep an eye on the blog, for updates on the workshop location though. I'll keep you all posted!

Officially Listed

So, after a month of comfree, circumstances have suddenly expedited our need to sell. Luckily, we had a fantastic Realtor, already lined up.. Which helped us to weed out and eliminate the slithering snakes, disguised as real estate agents.

The choice was obvious. And easy.. Shifty pricks.

Not to discount the effectiveness of comfree.. I would have been happy, sitting on the property, a while longer. But, doors were opening and closing, much too fast, for the slow lane.

My only real concern, is the lack of online visibility, to local realtors.. So I am told. Comfree really needs to pick up their heels, on this. Listing my property in a city, 2 hours away, with an entirely different (and uninterested) market, is definitely not a conducive use of my hard earned dollar.. Get it together, guys.. Local listing. Figure it out.

All blathering rants aside. I am currently listed with Keller Williams. Full, unhindered Realtor.ca listing. It's only been a day, on the market, and we have some interested prospects! Things are now progressing smoothly.

Oh. And we should have a new location very very soon. Tillsonburg.. Hope you like rustic furniture!

Lazy Tables

What ever happened to Killer Tables?? The blog isn't updated anymore.. Wtf, Kevin?!?

Relax.. I am still here.. Calm down.. Simmer... RELAX!

Okay.. So! I've been super busy with not only building great furniture, for you folks.. But, once again, hunting down some great real estate! Which has been tremendously exhausting.. The long drives, across the damn province..

Across the province.. That's right. Killer Tables is moving! To a less populated, smaller town.. With less potential for a volume based business..

But, Kevin.. That sounds like a silly move, to make at this point..

Yup.. But, I am not a furniture builder for the money, remember!? So relax! I just really enjoy working with wood.. Hopefully I'll still get a large volume of clientèle. Sure.. It would keep me busy! Which is the main focus. Keeping Kevin out of trouble.

Okay.. Fine. Where the bloody is the new shop?

I am getting to that.. The new shop looks like... Tillsonburg!

St Thomas?

Shut up! I said Tillsonburg.. It was going to be in St Thomas.. I know. But, circumstances change. I apologize. St Thomas would certainly have been the ideal location for this breed of craft.. But, things just didn't work out that way. It's unfortunate.. I guess..

So! Look out, Tillsonburg! :D
