I purchased a cutting board from Thurston Woodworks that actually was crafted by DC Woodworking in Montreat, NC. The day before I randomly walked into his shop inquiring about his work and that's when I saw the collection of cutting boards. The next day AFTER his store closed, he allowed me to enter since he was still working on an other order and i purchased a Ambrosia Maple and Walnut (red heart) cutting board. Great customer service and I would love to purchase more work in the future.

Thurston Woodworks has been incredible to work with! They have repaired numerous pieces for me and I will continue to take all my future needs to them. From total refinishing to making custom furniture, they can do it all! They took special care of my unique antiques. Wonderful folks!Services: Furniture repairs

Rick designed and created a dining table for me out of raw cherry boards that is absolutely beautiful. We got together on design ideas, and he made wonderful suggestions to enhance the design to match six antique dining chairs. I couldn’t be happier with the results. In addition, Rick refinished an antique French breakfast table that had years of old stain and varnish. The results were equally as impressive. I continue to use Rick for other restoration projects.Services: Custom furniture

Had a very awkward space to fill in our new home in black mountain. When driving through the town months ago we noticed the woodwork shop and thought he might be able to help. I provided the dimensions and viola we have a beautiful cedar chest. Superior craftsmanship. Also the turn around was about 2 weeks. Really didn't expect that.Finally, and ironically, I saw the review of his business regarding the vaccinated folks who said he was super rude to them in the store. I was actually present at that very same visit and their description is NOT how it happened. I don't understand folks who review negatively based on a perceived experience and didn't actually have any business done. I digress... I love the work and I'm sure I'll be back when needed!Service: Custom furniture

Visited this shop Sunday with my husband and a sign was on the door indicating “masks required if not vaccinated.” My husband and I both entered without a mask since we have both been vaccinated. The man in the shop (I assume Rick) rudely admonished us about the sign on the door even though we were following the instructions even carrying our vaccination cards with us. HOWEVER, the irony is that he stood there without a mask. Newsflash: the mask mandate applies to you too, Rick!!! How do your customers know that you have been vaccinated? Way to welcome tourists into your “shop.” Thankfully, the other Black Mountain shop owners use the same sign, follow the guidelines and provide a pleasant shopping experience.

Rick is very passionate about his woodworking trade. His quality workmanship was reflected in the restoration of our dining room table gouged by movers. He is a true craftsman in refinishing as well as creating amazing and unique custom-built furniture designed in accordance with customer needs. He also has built and/or restored items for sale in his shop. It is worth a visit to view his skill. Thank you, Rick, for doing a FABULOUS JOB!!! I wish I could rate you more!!!
