For instance one of our clients who had purchased our lovely worktop to create this modern kitchen initially had miscalculated the needed length of the worktop and ended up ordering more worktops than he actually needed. Although we were ready to exchange the worktops for smaller ones, our client was determined to use those offcuts in his home. As it can be seen in the picture the client has created a coffee-table set where if required the smaller coffee table can be folded under the larger one. This creative solution that first seemed like a small mistake has inspired us in many dimensions, we were excited to see how our worktops can become a beautiful addition in every corner of the house.

The offcuts are simply fitted with wood screws to the metal coffee table legs, which in turn is bought online. The so-called amateurish cut of the worktops by the client, where the circular blade has left black marks when cutting, have given a particular charm to the table. A perfect cut can be achieved if a special circular blade for hardwood is used. We encourage our customers to always make sure that the circular blades are well-sharpened as the Balkan Oak is harder than the remaining Oak species. A final touch to the self-made table is given by applying colourless matt premium hardwax oil. We suggest using hardwax oil on our wood surfaces instead of the varnish oils as it is way easier to maintain and keep clean. Eventually this table has become a unique addition to the house as it is hand-tailored to fit the exact atmosphere of the room. Besides these unique and charming coffee tables, our offcuts can be utilized in creating many more beautiful wooden additions to your homes. Chopping boards, smartphone holders, wood watches are just some of the thousand options that you can choose to transform your offcuts into, making them a unique piece both in your hearts and homes.
