Burned out from construction and facing Emma’s advanced breast cancer, we started Three Dogs Woodwork—two of us crafting innovative, heirloom-quality custom furniture in central Arkansas. As Why choose live edge + steel from Three Dogs Woodwork?

Unique natural materials: Each slab is chosen for grain and character; live edges preserve the wood’s natural shape so every piece is one‑of‑a‑kind.

Durable engineering: Steel bases are sized, welded, and finished to support slabs, prevent warping, and withstand daily use for generations.

Made for your space: Pick size, edge, species, finish, and base—from hairpin to geometric trestle—we ensure proper fit and scale.

Heirloom quality: Traditional joinery, hand‑sanding, and furniture‑grade finishes protect and enhance the wood.

Custom finishes & features: Matte, satin, or hand‑rubbed finishes; expandable leaves, inlaid live edges, epoxy rivers, cable management; steel can be powder‑coated, clear‑sealed, or patinated.

Purposeful purchase: A portion of proceeds funds cancer research and animal rescue—own a piece that gives back.

Why choose live edge + steel from Three Dogs Woodwork?

• Genuine, one-of-a-kind materials: We select each slab for its grain, figure, and personality. Live edges preserve the wood’s natural contours and character, so every table, console, or bench is a singular piece of the outdoors brought indoors.

• Structural integrity that lasts: Our steel bases are fabricated to complement the wood — sized, welded, and finished to support the slab perfectly, eliminate warping, and endure daily use for generations.

• Custom to your life and style: Tell us your desired size, edge profile, wood species, finish tone, and base style — from minimalist hairpin to bold geometric trestle. We handle fitting, clearances, and scale so the final piece is proportioned exactly for your space.

• Heirloom craftsmanship: We focus on traditional woodworking joinery, hand-sanding, and furniture-grade finishes that highlight the wood’s depth while protecting it against moisture and wear.

• Thoughtful fabrication & finishing options: Choose matte, satin, or hand-rubbed finishes, integrated leaves for expandable dining tops, inset live-edge inlays, epoxy river fills, or integrated cable management for desks. Steel bases can be powder-coated, clear-sealed, or given a brushed/aged patina to match your aesthetic.

• Purpose-driven purchase: As we grow, a portion of proceeds supports cancer research and animal rescue — pieces you own also help build a legacy that matters.
