Start With the Application
Custom Wood Products
A practical conversation about what you need, how it will be used and the material choices that can work.
Discuss Your Custom ProductA custom wood-product order does not have to begin with a finished drawing. It can begin with a conversation about the job the product needs to do.
We work through the application, dimensions, quantities and material requirements with you. Where the details are still being developed, we can discuss them together before working toward an order.
Start With the Application
What will the product be used for? Which dimensions matter? What must the material do, and are there species that cannot be used? These questions help us understand the requirement before choosing a solution.
Work Through the Requirements Together
-
Describe the need
Explain the application and the dimensions you have in mind.
-
Review the details
Bring drawings if you have them. If not, we can discuss the design requirements together.
-
Consider material choices
Identify required or excluded species and where the application allows flexibility.
-
Discuss supply
Establish the quantities, expected order frequency and lead time needed between ordering and delivery.
Consider the Material Options
The right material is not always the first one that comes to mind. A familiar species may not be the most practical choice for the application or the available supply.
Where your application permits flexibility, we consider suitability, regional availability and economics when discussing the product. Practical knowledge of wood and supply conditions can help identify alternatives worth considering.
Plan for Repeat Requirements
Tell us how frequently you expect to order and how much lead time your operation can provide. We value ongoing commercial relationships and will also consider one-time commercial requirements. Current regional products are direct-shipped throughout Kentucky and surrounding states.
Tell Us What You Are Trying to Do
Share the application, dimensions and quantities you know. If some details are still open, we can begin there.
