American

Prairie
Collection

NEW! Drawknife Billiards proudly introduces a new line to its product group, inspired by the Prairie School designs of such people as Frank Lloyd Wright. A few years ago we introduced the Gallatin Group, a line that was a departure from our original, log-based Yellowstone Collection.

 

The American Prairie Collection is designed to offer our clients another choice in custom, rustic, game room furniture. This new group will be built from Knotty Alder, a wood that works well for rustic home furnishings.

 

The new American Prairie Collection incorporates clean, simple lines, with a naturally distressed look. These pieces can range from the Basic Style, products that allow the beauty of the unusual knots and grain patterns of the wood to dominate, to the Paneled Style, which enhances the basic pieces by the addition of trim panels on the body, base or legs of the item.

The

Yellowstone
Collection

This is our original product group, built from logs from surrounding forests. Over the years, we have added several new game tables and other items to allow our clients to put together a totally unique rustic game room for their family and friends.
Standard
These pieces are the least distressed. The logs are the ones most commonly found in the forests and may have occasional worm holes or beetle-tracking to add interest. The finished items are usually simpler in design than our other styles.
 
Wilderness
The pieces in this group use logs that are chosen for their unique, natural, heavily-distressed character. They are less prevelant in the forest than the standard logs. In order to build a wilderness item, our shop craftsmen need to select logs with similar character that will work well together in the final product. These logs also require more time to prepare and finish than the standard logs.

Burl
To make our burl tables and accessories, we look for the most unusual logs in the forest. Due to the knobby, knotty character of burl, these pieces never look alike, even when they are built using the same design. Like the wilderness logs, burl logs must be carefully selected by hand to create an aesthetically pleasing piece that will be a beautiful, artistic addition to a rustic game room.
   
The
Gallatin
Group
Unlike our Yellowstone collection that creates its rustic look with log legs and trim, the Gallatin pieces incorporate rustic details through the use of quarter-round log trim in the rectangular insets in the legs, bodies and pedestals of the various items. In the case of the Gallatin billiard, pool or snooker tables, we also use log trim on the rails and aprons.
Gallatin
We usually produce these pieces with a medium brown stain on the body and legs, (usually our Pure American), and a dark walnut stain on the inset trim logs to add interest and enhance the design elements.
