Greetings!  
  
 

Dwayne has completed his surgery and is at home healing. He is trying his best to not go bonkers while doing nothing. He had surgery on his elbow to relocate his Ulnar nerve, which will hopefully recover the feeling in his fingers as they have been going numb over the past couple of years. 

 

Surprisingly, this is a common problem that happens to people who do repetitive motions. It's been just over a week and he is starting to feel better, but is anxious to get back at it.

 

We have been using this down time to do some Research and Development on new products that we will soon be launching. I will give you a clue: our sustainable furniture is about to become more sustainable. These new products will have a twist on what we currently build, but will still retain the same great values as the stone furniture. We're hoping to show you soon, we think you're going to love it!

 

The reasoning behind expanding the products we offer is that the stone quarry where we obtain the Idaho Gray flagstone from has been closed. It's been closed for a few years and we are operating on the surplus of what's left. We still have enough to keep us going for awhile, but there will come a day when we will run out. If you have been thinking about ordering the Idaho Gray stone, we would recommend doing it in the near future since stone is a natural resource and we can not control the inventory.

 

In other exciting news, we won an award as one of Colorado's Top 250 Companies and we have applied for a grant to expand our business, but we're going to need your help. Continue reading to see how you can help.

Then & Now: How's Free Shipping Sound?
    
(This special section features something from the past & present to celebrate our 10 year anniversary during 2013) 
  
  Free Shipping
  
When we first started our business we did not have very favorable shipping rates. The shipping companies love to take advantage of the new guy, but over the past 10 years we have negotiated our rates down to more reasonable level.  In fact our rates are almost half of what they were a decade ago.
  
So to celebrate our 10 years of building and our better rates, we would like to offer you FREE shipping on anything you order before the end of the year.
  
  
  

  

 
Recent Creations:
  
  

Here's that custom table we were telling you about, it went to our client in Mississippi for their lodge. They already had existing barstools that they wanted to use with it.
  
The first thing we had to do was cut a large stone into the shape of an oval using a water jet. Then we wrapped the stone with an aluminum band that we hammered a texture onto, and using big rivets secured it to the stone. The frame is all welded steel that with a heavy duty round bar wrapped around it. Then to finish the top we used a product called Bar Top. It's a liquid finish poured over the stone and to give it a glass like hard finish.
  
The top is 32" oval 41" high.

Dwayne's Artist Statement:

  

 Dwayne Welding on Gate 

   

My rock chairs have been compared to something found on the set of the Flintstones, but great care is given to ensure they are both aesthetically pleasing and comfortable. The stone added to discarded steel results in functional furniture inspired by Mother Nature. They are not only weatherproof, but integrate easily into landscapes and cityscapes without intruding on the surrounding beauty Tell me more.
