Custom cabinetry, woodworking and woodturning by Keith Larrett
I was asked to design, build and install a wine rack with stemware moldings to fit in some existing cabinetry. The wine rack was built from alder and stained to match the cabinetry. It was a challenging project as the cabinet opening was smaller than the interior of the cabinet due to the face frame. So the wine rack had to be built in parts and assembled inside the cabinet.
We just recently finished a great collaboration on a kitchen in St Simons Island, GA. The kitchen designer, Annie Martin Francis, of St. Petersburg, FL, completed the design and was sourcing cabinets from a high-quality American factory. However, not all of the customizations she designed were possible in the factory. So, she commissioned us to build a range hood surround, a 111” long island back panel and handle the entire installation. From routing to finish, our additions were a perfect match and integrated seamlessly. The result is a unique and gorgeous kitchen with special custom touches.
We installed this built-in entertainment center today.
The LED lights are dimmable and controlled by a remote.
The center cabinet actually gets two shelves, but in the early morning excitement of loading the trailer, they were somehow forgotten. A bit embarrassing, but a quick return trip after the install and the error was rectified.
So this is some awesome sauce

Yesterday we installed the Murphy Bed. It is built from rustic alder. The bed is a queen size bed. The cabinets on either side of the bed have a hand-carved counter top with LED lights illuminating them.
There are four sets of LED lights, one above each countertop, one above the bed shining down and a fourth set above the cabinetry. All the lights are dimmable and are controlled by a remote with each set on a separate channel so they can be activated independently.
Raising and lowering the bed is very easy, as the spring mechanism balances the weight of the bed panel and mattress.
It was impressive, despite the amount of cabinetry, how much the installation of the Murphy Bed opened up the room.
I installed my latest project yesterday, a study unit. It is built from rustic alder. The desktop is solid alder and has a carved live edge.
The study unit includes LED lighting above and below the cabinets illuminating the desktop and the room. The lighting is dimmable and is controlled by a remote. The desktop includes two low profile pop up power/data outlets. They each have two USB ports and two 110v outlets.
The drawer boxes are solid maple with dovetails and there are four cabinets for hanging file folders. There is also a roll out drawer for the paper shredder. The drawer guides are full extension under mount guides. The door hinges are soft close.
From my client’s initial sketch I designed the project in eCabinets. I was then able to show my client photo realistic renderings for their approval prior to starting the project.
