Phase two of the double-batch build is officially in action.

Remember when I asked what you think those cuts are being turned in to? Well now I’m taking these 5-foot blanket ladders through some 120 grit sanding and assembling the rungs to the rails while the wood is completely unfinished.

Seeing them raw like this is the ultimate proof of quality, but the real transformation happens when they hit the finishing booth next.

Leave a comment and let me know: Should we go with a deep dark stain on these, or keep it light and natural? 👇🤔

Making a 3D end-grain American Flag mosaic. 🪚🇺🇸 Took dozens of raw wood blocks, stained the grain, and locked them into a rich walnut border. Love how this personal build turned out! What finish would you choose? Let me know in the comments!

Want one for your home? Pieces like this will go for $175 and I’ll add in a custom color request for the border!

Swipe to see what happens when you combine raw wood blocks, a little (Lot) patience, and a vision. 🪵🇺🇸
What started as a Jenga look-a-like transformed to this beautiful piece!

We took those raw, stacked blocks from the first photo, stained the end-grains in a bold barn red, solid white, and navy blue, and meticulously assembled them into this stunning 3D Textured American Flag Wall Mosaic. This build is actually a personal piece heading straight onto my own wall at home! I love using my own space to test out new designs before opening them up to everyone else!

By hand-arranging the end-grain blocks at staggered depths and framing them with a rich, dark walnut border, it creates an incredible 3D effect that completely brings the natural wood grain to life. No flimsy plastic, no cheap stencils—just heavy, durable, solid craftsmanship built right here in Idaho Falls.

Settle a home styling mystery for me...🧐

We’ve all got that one spot in the house. The awkward, empty living room corner next to the TV, or that blank wall at the end of the hallway that just feels cold and missing something. You don't want a massive, bulky piece of furniture overcrowding the room, but a small picture frame just looks lost on a big wall.

When I’m designing pieces here at Service & Sawdust, my goal is always to solve that exact problem—bringing inviting warmth, height, and texture into a space without cluttering the floor. Our handcrafted blanket ladders (swipe through to see the different finishes) are my absolute favorite fix for this because they instantly cozy up a room.

But I want to learn more about how your homes are set up!

Take a look around your living room right now and tell me:
1) What is your go-to trick for styling an awkward, empty corner? (Plants, accent chairs, lighting?)
2) Or do you currently have a "mystery corner" in your house that you are still trying to figure out?Drop a comment below and share your home styling secrets! If you have a picture of a cozy corner you love, upload it so we can get some inspiration and allow others to see the vision! 👇🏡

Mystery Solved: From weathered flooring to a premium raw build! 🪚

Yesterday, I challenged you to guess what would become of that rough, weathered piece of walnut flooring. After pulling the old staples, ripping to size, creating flat and smooth surfaces, here is the result: a sleek, minimalist Handcrafted Display Shelf.

This specific piece is actually a personal build for my own home! I love using my own living space as a testing ground for potential new designs and products.I wanted to show it to you completely raw—before any stain or finish—because the craftsmanship speaks for itself. Look at those flush joints with the rabbet groove running across. When you build with military precision and premium hardwoods, you don’t need wood fillers or thick paint to hide mistakes, just time, patience, and a hardcore drive.

Should this be a limited time custom product for purchase? Let us know in the comments!👇

Make sure to hit that follow button- tomorrow I’m dropping a behind the scenes video of some of the cutting, jointing, and sanding that went into it!

Don't let the rough exterior fool you... 🤫🪵

Take a close look at this piece on the miter saw. Right now, it looks like weathered, old hardwood flooring complete with old finish, staples, and grooves...
But as a woodworker, I don't see scrap. I see a hidden TREASURE.

Underneath that rough surface is solid, premium Walnut—one of the most beautiful, durable, and sought-after hardwoods in the world. This piece has incredible density, stunning grain structure, and a deep color that you just can't buy off the shelf at a big-box hardware store. I’m locking this piece into the workbench today to strip away the past and unlock its true potential and purpose.

Any guesses on what this premium piece of Walnut is going to become? Drop your best comment!👇

Be sure to give a follow so you don’t miss the transformation video and see the final result!
