Welcome to tlself.com, a work in progress. Last updates posted 02/20/04.

My name is Terry L. Self. I am a cabinetmaker and furniture builder with offices located in Raleigh and High Point, NC. The main office and studio is at 1028 Hammell Drive, Raleigh, NC, 27603-2226 (919-831-0900).

My goal is to use these pages as a resource for those interested in my design/build/construction services and to display examples of completed projects in the form of a digital portfolio.

My regards, Terry L Self

What I do

Design, fabricate, repair, construct, finish, and refinish cabinetry, casework, furniture, and fixtures. I have also been known to dabble in residential light construction and repair, generally but not exclusively as an extension of site work preparations for installation of cabinetry, casework, and millwork. Materials are generally domestic hardwood lumber and plywood, with the occasional use of engineered composites in something other than a shop fixture or jig. Joinery is a hard glued mortise and tenon or variant.

What I do not

Not much--- ask me.

How I do it

Shop details- I occupy a 2800 square foot office/studio in Raleigh for primary fabrication. The High Point location is primarily an unstaffed satellite office with limited fabrication function.
