I'm not sure why Clint gets the accolades he gets from his "custom" pieces. They are uber simple and lack any real character. I just watched a show where he put some shelves on the wall and used metal shelf supports that looked like they came out of a 1990's closet. Does he not know how to do floating shelves? Most of the tables he makes look like they come out of college frat houses. I'm being dead serious. There is nothing unique about his creations. You can find the same stuff at any Home Goods store. The only difference is that he uses reclaimed wood, which he tends to automatically call antique wood. Reclaimed does not mean antique. Every piece of pine he's reclaimed he calls antique pine. Something about the chip and joanna crew, including chip and joanna, makes them not want to do any finishing work. They don't putty over nail holes. They screw decorative items right into the wall and the screw is still showing on the decorative piece. For example, a mirror with a wood frame was screwed directly through the wood frame into the wall. Tacky.
