Origins of OAw

Kyle Snellenberger loved woodworking and worked in his father’s carpenter shop. Ouachita Antique Woods opened at 336 Fontana Road in 2016 to handle his rising bespoke furniture orders. The company concept expanded to include antique and repurposed wood. Kyle has added tools and equipment for larger bespoke works. Kyle turns fallen trees into personalized furniture instead of buying slabs and cuts.

Watch Our
Process

At Ouachita Antique Woods, our passion for woodcraft runs deep.  Located in Monroe, Louisiana, amongst reclaimed wood and fallen trees, we offer a full range of options.  From reclaimed woods and slabs to small and large scale custom woodwork offerings, our company is a one stop shop for any size project. We have our hands in as much of the process as possible, and that even starts with the tree. With our in-house kiln, we ensure quality wood from the first cut. Every measure is taken to ensure your project will truly last. From the joinery, hardware, finish, and even installation, you’ll quickly realize the attention to detail.

We kept this project under the radar, but a few weeks back we were fortunate enough to get the opportunity to build something for @joerogan and his new podcast studio in Austin.

The Eli

My good buddy @jonathanwebsterphotography recently took some pictures at @theeli_cotton and sent me this shot of the bar and beam cased opening I installed 4-5 years ago. It’s an old historic building in downtown Monroe and the target goal was to build something that appeared to have been there since original construction (circa 1905+-). Heavily broken in with a beautiful patina, it looks even better now than it did the day we installed it. Ironically enough, the reclaimed Hemlock we used to build it is even older than the building it went into.

How do you make a table that says “we build badass guns” without saying it. This is what we ended up with. When you’re creating furniture for a company that specializes in highly customized firearms you’ve got to get way outside the box. Obviously the base is what really stands out here. Built to resemble ammunition rounds on a bandolier, the “shell casings” are 7.5″ diameter steel pipe that we sandblasted and hand patina’d to give an aged brass look. The “bullet” tips are solid 7″ thick hand turned White Oak. We milled the blanks out of a tornado tree we salvaged in 2018. It took two 20″+ diameter logs just to make the 32 bullets. The top is made of heavily character grade White Oak and is full of wild grain patterns. We routed the @outlawordnance logo in by hand and wrapped the entire top with a 3″ tall steel edge band to give it a more tactical look and feel. Final dimensions are 5’x15′. We did a lot of head scratching to make this thing a reality and I couldn’t be happier with the way it turned out.
