Anyone making plinths? WTB

Shload, what are you looking for in a plinth?

Are you looking for an asthetic upgrade a performance upgrade or both?

I've done a few over the years, the latest one can be seen in my system gallery.

Here's another guy, Doug Olsen:

and an example of his work:

I haven't used him, but he was very professional in our correspondence.

I can do it. Look here: jphii.com

With all due respect I am not sure that I'd hire either of the guys that posted their own pictures on this thread. In the first one of the Lenco it looks like someone messed up the miter cuts in the corners and hid the start over by using a darker color of wood. The second one of the Teres seems a little better and maybe it is the camera work but there look like a lot of open grain and even some snading marks for such a fine as wood as used. Deserved a better finish. Buy I am picky. Other people might not be. Don't get me wrong they are nice enough but not like the quality someone should be paying for.

There are potentaill a couple of very fine looking plinths in the link the Armstrod provides but it is unclaer if the person who made the website built all of these or if he is just posting a bunch done by other people.

I don't see an real examples from the lolo of jes45 guy.

Hi, Jes45! I very much appreciate your comments on the knobs I made for you. I’m most happy that they worked out and that they are of the quality you sought. Coming from you, that means A LOT! Ha!

I did not notice this thread initially but was notified of it by my son this afternoon. For the record, while I come from a very long line of woodworkers and I apprenticed for a time under my grandfather, I am not in the woodworking BUSINESS per se – meaning I do not solicit plinth building gigs as a business. My sons and I have built a number of tables for ourselves and anyone who wishes to view them can find a link or two to them in the Lenco thread or they can contact me directly. As far as building plinths for others, I have done a couple as favors for friends, as well as making a few component cases of Corian covered with hardwood veneers and polycarbonate top plates. And, while I am extremely flattered that Jes45 would recommend me to folks, I can probably not service your needs at this time. In fact, I have regretfully turned down several requests for this very work in the past several weeks. This is mostly due to a recurring and most bothersome back problem, not because I do not have an interest in servicing folks. I will make a post in the future if this situation would change. In the meantime, if you have interest, drop me an e-mail and, depending on the specific need, I may or may not be able to accommodate. Thanks.

David
