Such a fun project to see. You work on such fascinating projects. Would love to see it when it’s completed. Fumed white oak is such a smart way to color the oak and match the aged panels. The variety of panels including the carved panels make it so unique and special. Thanks so much for sharing.

The first hidden door was definitely a pivot hinged door because you can see a gap between the left side of the door & casing when opened. Also the box on the bar top at 1:32 is a dead giveaway. The rest look like standard 110° European hinges to me. Possibly *_Blum_* branded on this project im guessing. Either way I agree id also love to see a breakdown of how he makes them because im sure they are built to last with the Hull name attached. Beautiful room!!
My favorite project to watch as well.

Brent, what's your process for fuming? Are y'all using something like industrial strength amonia?

You can use a low percentage but it'll take forever and never make it to dark brown/ black. Funny enough, we haven't been able to get our hands on the industrial % stuff since COVID where I'm currently based at.

@@bfelb respectfully I asked Mr.Hull what HIS fuming process for Hull Historical is. I’m curious as to the logistics really. Brent said to fully buildout this English Tavern basement, his team had to add additional elements. To me that translates to matching tones of the original to the new via a chemical process; that’s quite a challenge with just a few pieces because tannin levels can vary wildly even inside a single tree. What prompted the question is that there are currently unfinished (un-fumed) pieces in situ; does that mean Brent is fitting things on site and then removing them to fume later? I can’t imagine these new homeowners want you fuming in their forever home so that’s out. Therefore, it’s likely that pieces have a lot of back and forth between the site and the shop, that increases the likelihood they can get damaged. Brent is a master builder, he’s more than likely fully aware of the aforementioned, but yet the painstaking process of fitting, removing, and fuming. Why not build things in sections, mock them up in the shop, fuming them there and then reassemble on site? Hull Historical has been around for +30 years. Brent is a master builder in the truest sense. He has his reasons for operating in the fashion. He probably understands many things about this business that I do not. That why I’m here. I want to understand his methodology. BTW sharing your story about your inability to locate a product in your area isn’t very helpful, especially when you haven’t shared with us your general locale. Also I mentioned INDUSTRIAL strength ammonia for a reason, it is because I too, am aware of the lackluster results of off the shelf stuff, hence my use of the word.

What makes an English pub so great is it's a place where the community meets and socializes. Why not build a beautiful pub in your town? Building it in your basement so only you can experience it is such an American thing.
