The Steps of Designing a Custom Table

At Timber Ridge Table Company all of our tables are handmade and custom designed by clients with the help of our design experts. It is important to know the key steps to take while designing a custom live edge or traditional style table. 

1. Initial Consultation: At the initial consultation you can expect to meet with your custom woodworker and design expert to begin the design process. This is where the vision, desires, preferences, and requirements for the table are identified. It is important to discuss style ideas, size requirements, wood preference, leg type preference, and any other specific features for the table at this consultation.
2. Concept Development: Based upon the client's input, the design expert will put together an initial design concept and sketch for the table. 
3. Wood Selection: It is important to choose a company that values high quality wood and materials. Timber Ridge Table Company offers wood imported from Costa Rica and domestically harvested wood. This includes everything from walnut, cherry, oak, maple, Guanacaste, and steamed walnut to monkeypod, elm, silver maple, white oak, soft maple, box elder, cedar and more. 
4. Leg Selection: Legs can add a unique touch to your luxury custom table. Table legs are 100% custom for each table and each customer. These table legs can range from custom wooden table legs, custom welded table legs, to legs from a chosen supplier. 
5. Detailed Design Plans: Detailed design plans include final plans, specifications, measurements, construction techniques, and materials selection. This step ensures that the design meets the clients expectations and reflects the standards of Timber Ridge Table Company. This is also where a final quote and timeline can be developed. 
6. Construction and Assembly: Work alongside skilled craftsmen to bring the design to life. The construction of a custom live edge can take anywhere from a month to a month and a half depending on the size and design details. 
7. Finishing Touches: Applying premium finishes, such as hand applied stains, durable UV cured topcoats, or custom detailing. These final touches enhance the beauty and durability of the custom table. 
8. Delivery and Installation: This step involves delivery of the custom table to the clients location and professional installation services. The design expert will ensure the table is set up correctly and meets the clients satisfaction. 

These steps will allow your luxury custom table to be crafted to meet the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship. At Timber Ridge Table Company, we design quality custom tables that create heirloom pieces that are designed to last a lifetime.
