CNC Machining & Bespoke Manufacturing
CNC Machining & Bespoke Manufacturing in London
Precision CNC machining, veneering, spray finishing, metalwork and specialist decorative finishes — all produced in our London workshop.
Inside Our Workshop
From CNC machining and panel cutting to veneering, edge banding and specialist finishing, our workshop brings every key stage of production together in one place. Explore the craftsmanship, processes and techniques behind the bespoke components we produce.
Five-Axis CNC Machining
Our five-axis CNC machine allows us to shape complex timber components with precision. In this image, a curved solid-wood element is securely held in place while the machine works along its profile.
This capability is especially useful for bespoke furniture, curved joinery and architectural details that would be difficult to produce consistently by hand. We can work from your drawings or digital files and help prepare components for the next stages of production.
Panel Cutting
Our Mayer beam saw cuts large boards accurately to the sizes needed for each project. We work with MDF, plywood, laminated and veneered panels, producing clean, consistent cuts while taking care with finished surfaces and edges.
From a single replacement panel to a complete cutting list for fitted furniture, we can prepare the components for edge banding, veneering, CNC machining or assembly. Keeping these stages in one workshop makes the production process simpler for our clients.
Edge Banding
After cutting, the exposed edges of a panel need a clean, durable finish. Our Format4 edge banding machine applies matching edging to laminated and veneered boards, giving each component a neat appearance and protecting its edges in everyday use.
We can cut panels to size and edge band them in the same workshop. This makes it easier to order ready-to-assemble components for fitted furniture, cabinetry and bespoke joinery.
Wide Belt Sanding
A consistent surface is essential before a panel receives its final finish. Our Felder wide belt sander smooths flat timber and veneered boards across their full width, helping us prepare them evenly for the next stage of work.
We use this process for furniture panels, doors and other flat joinery components. Careful sanding is particularly important with veneer, where the surface must be prepared without losing the character of the timber.
Curved Veneering
Curved surfaces need even pressure to bond veneer neatly to their shape. Our vacuum membrane press draws a flexible membrane around the workpiece, pressing the veneer against its contours while the adhesive sets.
This allows us to produce shaped furniture parts, curved panels and architectural joinery with a natural timber finish. It is one of the specialist processes we can carry out alongside CNC machining and panel preparation in our workshop.
Flat Panel Veneering
Our heated press bonds natural veneer to flat boards using controlled pressure and temperature. It allows us to prepare large, consistent surfaces for cabinet doors, furniture panels and bespoke joinery.
We can help select and arrange the veneer so the grain works with the design, then press the prepared sheets onto the panel. Cutting, veneering, sanding and edge banding can all be coordinated within our workshop.
Veneer Stitching
Natural veneer comes in individual leaves. Our Kuper stitching machine joins them into larger sheets before they are pressed onto a panel. This lets us arrange the grain deliberately, including matched patterns for doors, cabinetry and furniture.
Preparing the veneer in our workshop gives us control over the appearance of the finished surface from the first sheet through to pressing and sanding.
Factory Spray Finishing
Machining is only part of the process. We also prepare and spray-finish joinery components in our workshop, from cabinet doors and furniture panels to more detailed bespoke pieces.
Careful surface preparation helps achieve an even finish, while factory spraying gives us control over the application. Depending on the project, we can finish components in a selected colour and sheen before they move on to assembly or installation.

Wood Staining
Staining changes the tone of timber while allowing its natural grain to remain visible. We prepare the surface, apply the chosen stain and assess the result against the appearance required for the project.
This is particularly useful when new components need to complement existing joinery or when a specific timber colour is part of the design. We can produce a sample for approval before finishing the full set of components.
Metalwork & Fabrication
We produce bespoke metal components and structures for furniture, joinery and architectural interiors.
Each element is carefully prepared, fabricated and welded to suit the design and dimensions of the project.
From table bases and furniture frames to decorative details and specialist features, our metalwork can be finished as a standalone element or prepared for further decorative treatments.
Liquid Metal Application
Liquid Metal allows us to create a real metallic finish across furniture, panels and bespoke interior components. The material is applied to a prepared surface and can be used on both simple and complex shapes.
Different tones and textures can be achieved, including bronze, brass and copper effects, depending on the character required for the project.
Polishing & Texture
Once applied, the surface is worked and polished by hand to develop its final appearance.
We can create smooth, refined finishes or more irregular and expressive textures with greater depth and movement.
This process is particularly effective for table tops, decorative panels and statement furniture pieces.
Patination
Patination adds depth, colour variation and character to the metal finish, allowing us to create anything from subtle tonal changes to stronger aged and antique effects.
The surface is developed by hand, so the patina reacts differently across polished, textured and recessed areas. This creates natural variation and gives each piece a more individual, handcrafted appearance.
Patination works particularly well on decorative panels, furniture fronts, handles and bespoke metal details where the finish itself becomes an important part of the design.
