Services

In 1981, RSL began manufacturing hardwood flooring and moldings as well as offering the S2S and SL1E services to it’s customers. In 1998 we expanded our shop to house bigger and better equipment. 2001 we purchased a new Weinig moulder and 2006 the Centuro copy lathe was purchased. We pride ourselves on producing a quality American made product at an affordable price.  Our lathe is capable of producing reproductions up to 5” x 5” x 52”.  

Send us your template or the post itself and we will make the copy for you.  If you do not have a template or want to design your own post, send us a sketch with dimensions listed and we will have a template made for your project.

Historical reproductions are one of our specialties.  We produced a variety of posts for historical restorations in our area.

We also produce our own baseball bat.   If you are interested in a custom baseball bat, we are the company to contact.
