IS THERE UPHOLSTERED FURNITURE, IF SO, WHAT ABOUT PATTERNS?
We can upholster log chairs and couches with high end, quality memory foam and make hundreds of patterns available to choose from.
DO ALL LOGS CRACK OR CHECK?
Checking is a natural and characteristic process adding more uniqueness and beauty to the furniture, 95 % of all cracks and checks take place in our kiln before we craft the piece into furniture so we may place most of the cracks to the non visible side. Checking is a natural process and occurs in all logs of all species but never has any effect on the integrity and strength of the piece of furniture it eventually becomes.
WHERE IN CANADA DOES DEEP FOREST DELIVER?
We deliver throughout all of Canada.
ARE THEIR COLOUR CHOICES TO STAIN THE WOOD?
There is a wide variety of all shades and colours available to further personalise your chosen design.
WHAT TYPES OF FINISHES ARE AVAILABLE?
Deep Forest works with a premium diamond varathane to close the wood after a colour stain has been applied (satin, semi-gloss or high-gloss).
Also, for the outdoor projects, we use a natural deck oil by Napier products which is water clean up and environmentally friendly all the while keeping the piece protected from the direct sunlight and rain.
WHAT SPECIES OF WOODS DOES DEEP FOREST USE MOSTLY?
We mostly use West Coast red cedar, red Douglas fir, white and golden pine.
How passionate is Deep Forest about building?
William Hynes, mastercraftsman, personally see's to each and every piece of wood from the mill to the final product.
quote: " I still enjoy crafting these one of kind beauties so much it is almost as though each one is going to be mine the whole way thru the project....matching grains of boards, sister slabs, color of marbled red cedar from the large flare butts we get bring out the wildest grains!
I dont believe I will ever lose my passion for building..."
