2018 has flown by and what a year it has been! We started this year off by building our biggest table to date – a 20ft long boardroom table– and finished on a real high note, moving into our massive new space. We thrive on taking on new projects and challenges and this year has been filled with them.

Buying a new boardroom table for your office is no small feat. But a solid, durable boardroom table is a great investment. The way a space is designed can either energize or drain your employees. So if your boardroom table is drab or old, your meetings might feel soul-sucking instead of collaborative and creative.

There’s nothing we love more than building tables.. Except wait, there is: building BIG tables. We love a good challenge and the end product is always worth it. Large boardroom tables make for comfortable, productive meetings.

We know that every home is different, every room is different, and every family is different. Our goal is to make sure you’re comfortable – whether you’ll be ordering Chinese take-out with your closest friends, having a romantic meal for two, or sitting down for a nice dinner with the whole family. That being said, choosing your table’s size is a crucial part of the process. So we thought we’d offer some woodcutter wisdom. Here’s our guide on choosing a size for your table for different seating capacities.

For the past six years, Son of a Woodcutter has brought custom handcrafted furniture to its customers. We've always believed in creating furniture that tells a story. Today we're sharing ours.

West Elm is known for modern furniture and home decor, and we’re happy to say we’re part of that! For the past three years, we’ve been selling a small collection of our coffee tables in Toronto’s two West Elm locations. This is a great opportunity for Son of a Woodcutter and we’re proud to be contributing to West Elm’s collection of beautiful pieces!

Let’s talk about boardrooms for a second. They can either be painfully boring and bland or inspiring and a hub for creativity and new ideas. Boardroom tables or conference tables can make or break a room, especially since they’re the largest and most notable piece in the room.

We started Son of a Woodcutter in 2012 using genuinely, ‘reclaimed’ materials from old wooden pallets and siding from old agricultural buildings otherwise known as Barnboard. Fed up with cheap, low-quality furniture, I decided I was going to build my own coffee table.
