| An initial consultation is the first step. At this time, the general design and function of a piece may be discussed. A good idea is to keep a scrapbook of designs that you like. A picture is worth a thousand words. Start a folder and tear out any magazine pages that catch your eye, whether it is a color, a style, a table leg, a type of wood, etc. These photos will help us get a better idea of what appeals to you. Once we arrive at a design concept, CCW will begin conceptual drawings. These will usually consist of single page drawings that will be submitted for your approval. When the conceptual design is approved, we will present a price estimate and a contract document. The first stage of production begins with shop drawings and sample preparation. When the samples receive your signed approval, we can enter the project into the production sequence. The cabinetmaking phase involves a tremendous amount of hand work. During assembly, it is not uncommon for us to ask you to visit, to look at certain areas of the project to ensure that they are meeting your expectations. If a visit is not practical, we can update you by e-mailing digital photos. When the project is completely assembled, we will ask you to visit and give your final approval prior to the finishing of the piece. The finishing process is painstaking, sometimes involving as much work as the entire cabinetmaking process. When the piece is completed, you are asked to visit the shop to view it prior to delivery. Final payment is due at this time. Our payment terms are fifty at the time the contract is signed, thirty percent prior to the application of finish, and twenty percent upon delivery.
