Baja woodworking has a website!
Hello Nomads,
Some may remember that my husband does cabinetry and furniture. He has been pretty busy establishing himself here in Loreto and now has a new website
http://www.bajawoodworking.com where you can see his work and contact him if he can help you with anything.
Thanks for your support!

That's nice work. Especially down here with the limited availability of materials.

You should visit Chris' website. The sideboard is very nice, but everything he does is of real quality. I knew Sam Maloof as he was a client of
mine. He is world famous. Chris is getting near Sam's work, but for 1/100th of the price. Sam got $3500.00 US for one chair for the Whitehouse.
Look him up. In the meantime, for us common fold, looking for really nice work for our casas in Baja, Chris is the man.

Baja Woodworking is now offering un-finished furniture as well.
There is a new page on the website with recent un-finished projects for customers.
We would also like to offer a special Baja Nomad discount of 10% on work signed up before June 2011.
So, If you have a woodworking need this might be the time to get it done and save a little in the process.
Thanks to all of you for your support and visiting the website!

This looks like cedar? Some our friends have pine cabinets and the bugs eat the heck out of it.We have cedar, the cabinet maker called it Mexican
Cedar and have never had a problem with termites! I saw a train of ants march up to our pantry and when they met the cedar door, THEY TURNED AROUND
AND LEFT THE AREA just before I sprayed them.

Not sure which piece you're talking about?
Chris says that most everything on the website is either Alder, Pine or Mahogany.
He also said you are correct the Mexican Cedar is very bug resistant, good choice.

Thought I'd post a few photo of Chris' most recent project.
It is an entertainment center.
We posted quite a few more pictures on the website.

Nice stuff. Carpentry, from framing to cabinetry to carving is a great skill.
Everybody loves wood.
Does he buy the mahogany and alder in Loreto? If so, where?

He does buy his wood here in Loreto.
Best place is Maderas Californis
Next best is Casa de Carpintero
He gives free estimates. No prices on the site as each piece is custom made and there are several variables. I will say this, prices are very
reasonable.
He has been pretty busy, but we're always looking for more clients.
He appreciates the nice comments!
