"Diamond K Wooworks is the BEST! My daughter Jamie got married and wanted a sign the "log" for guests to sign instead of guest book. Jamie and her husband are in the Army. This is where sign the log came from.. we had some tree logs we found while on vacation in Pinecrest. Once we brought them to the valley they split and dried out. 2 days before the wedding I frantically was looking for a log.. This is where Diamond K Woodworks comes in to the picture. I contacted Dustin, he had me come to his shop and see if anything he had would work for us. He had these beautiful pieces of wood for me to pick from at this shop. Saving the day! Our wedding guest got to sign the log. We have now sealed it and are making into a bench fir them to sit on. Dustin saves the day!!! He is first class, honest, and great at response time of returning calls. I've even seen him at a huge demolition job site of groves of trees he had to remove. Don't wait and call him now!!"

He definitely knows his business�how to size up the work, adjust the amount of work to the time and budget available, and most of all performed great work for a reasonable price. We could not have asked for a more honest, expert helpful and kind person. E Maintenance accommodated our schedule and the project turned out great!""

Woodworking questions, answered by experts

Whether or not it’s easier to cut wood when it’s wet versus dry depends largely on the type of tool you use and the wood you’re cutting. For example, a chain saw should still be able to cut through wet wood with relative ease, but it may be more difficult to maneuver due to the wood fibers sticking to the chains of the saw. 

However, you might want to avoid cutting wood entirely when it’s wet if you’re pruning your tree. Sawing a wet tree that you don’t plan on removing can also encourage bacterial and fungal growth and decay.

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface materials can be cut with standard woodworking tools, such as a circular saw or a jigsaw. However, it is crucial to use the correct type of blade to avoid damaging the material.

For a circular saw, a tungsten carbide-tipped blade is required; a triple chip grind blade is highly recommended. For a jigsaw, you should use a fine-tooth down-cutting blade. Do not use blades designed for cutting wood, as they can cause microfractures that weaken the edges of the countertop. A diamond blade is also unnecessary, as those are designed for harder materials like natural stone, which Corian is not.

After cutting, the edge will be rough. It is essential to sand and smooth the cut edge to prevent microfractures, which can eventually compromise the integrity of the countertop.

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

Yes, Corian® and other solid surface countertops can be cut with standard woodworking tools like a circular saw or a jigsaw, but using the correct blade is crucial for the best results.

The recommended blade is a tungsten carbide-tipped blade, often called a solid-surface planer or triple chip grind blade. This type of blade is hard enough to cut through the material effectively. For a jigsaw, a fine-tooth down-cutting blade should be used.

It is important to note that a diamond blade is not necessary. Diamond blades are designed for harder materials like natural stone, concrete, or brick, and Corian is not a natural stone.

Using blades designed for wood is not recommended as they can cause microfractures that weaken the countertop's edges. While a tungsten carbide blade provides a much cleaner cut, the resulting edge will still be rough and must be sanded and smoothed to prevent microfractures from developing over time.

Yes, many repair services include blade sharpening as part of the maintenance package.
