Description

We undertake all forms of Cabinet Making and commissions. specialising in the production of Shaker Furniture.

The furniture Dartmoor Carpentry has produced has varied greatly over the years as styles change often making concept pieces from client’s drawings to the simplest of coffee tables.

From Four Poster beds to Oak Doors and Windows, real wood floors, butchers blocks to stair cases, special Oak Settles and kitchens.

Handmade bespoke projects take a little longer to produce but give more pleasure in the long term, and cost less than you may think. You can contact Dartmoor Carpentry via our listing below, there’s no obligation or charge to have a chat about a project or piece of furniture you’re considering. We do charge for complex design work.

Butchers Blocks

We make three types of genuine butcher’s blocks for domestic use. Kitchen single sided five inches deep. The sides of the block fit over the stand so it can not slip off.  Reversible heavy duty blocks five inch thick reversible blocks for catering or regular cleaver work.  Unframed Practical decorative, most suitable block for very hot and dry kitchens.

Blocks are normally supplied sealed with our special Tung based oil, giving a dry lustre finish which is resistant to water and heat. It can be polished and easily refinished by wiping on more oil.

Each block is still made by hand from seasoned kiln dried hard Maple in the traditional way. Blocks of wood are cut to size set on end and glued together to produce a block of ‘end grain’ wood,  steel rods are fitted through this block and bolted up to tighten it. The end grain block is then framed with side grain maple planks to prevent edge splintering, and the bolt heads are covered with hand made maple plugs. We make two types of traditional framed 5” block tops for domestic use. Kitchen single sided for normal domestic use. The sides of the block fit over the stand so it can not slip off. Reversible heavy duty blocks for catering or regular cleaver work. Alternatively we also make unframed end grain tops, four inches thick.  Practical decorative, this is the most suitable block top for very hot and dry kitchens
