It is snowing on WordPress!
I just finished a remake of my Slab-Fab-Studio website.
I used a template design, then tweaked it to get just what I needed.
I wanted simplicity, user friendly navigation (good organization) and lots of pictures.
You can peruse the new website by clicking here.
Slab-Fab-Studio recently installed a retail counter for Chris McMillan’s new Dwellings store in Biltmore Park.
Shane Martin produced the counter carcasses. Slab-Fab-Studio did the ebony stained trim work, acid etched galvanized panels, and of course the concrete counter tops.
Our good friend , Ben Schlaefer, found an antique door he wanted to turn into a head board for his bed.
Ben did the nasty job of stripping off many layers of paint . Slab-Fab-Studio cut the door to size. Then welded up a bracket and bracing to tie the new head board to Ben’s existing bed frame.
This looks even better attached to the bed.
Slab-Fab-Studio is getting a bit experimental (for us) with a new “inset” slab design.
The idea is to pour a perimeter of concrete, then inset another contrasting pour of concrete after the perimeter has cured enough. Here is a picture of the perimeter with the wire lathe showing, that will integrate the two slabs when both are poured. I polished the perimeter frame and exposed the aggregates. I plan to leave the interior, while a different color, unpolished , for further surface contrast.
I’ll let you know how the experiment works out.
Finally, I made up a logo for the biz. It’s not real deep, but it’s graphic enough to get the job done I think.
I needed something to ad to the magnetic signs I’ve ordered for my truck. Here’s what I came up with…
All you logo whiz’s might have some feedback for me. I’m not long term married to the graphic… just eloped on the quick.
