Click through to Shipping Info & Policy

All Fusion Studio Works products are shipped in one of two ways:

1. Several cardboard packages. (5 to 9 depending on product) – This is the default packaging type. Please refer to the 'packing and shipping options' section on the relevant product page for carboard carton dimensions and weight.

2. A custom made, plywood crate which may require a delivery truck with a ‘tail lift’ if you do not have access to a pallet jack or forklift.

There are two possible crate base sizes. Their flat area dimensions are as follows:

a) Australian 1165x1165mm (equal to a standard Australian pallet size)

b) UK/European 1200x1000mm (equal to one of the European standard pallet sizes)

Note the base size of the crate you receive depends on the requirements of the product as does the overall height and weight. Please see the info page for specific packed crate size and weight.

Once we have received your initial enquiry we will reply and ask for your shipping address and a few other relevant details in order to investigate the most cost-effective shipping option to your destination.

Fusion Studio Works operates under a ‘made to order’ model which means that we do not keep pre-manufactured stock in a warehouse ready to ship. There are various reasons for this:

- The customisable nature of some of our products means we cannot anticipate the details of your order.

- Our products are bulky and heavy and thus, are difficult to store.

- Our workshop produces bespoke furniture which embodies the antithesis of mass production. What we make is specifically for you.

The 'made to order' production model allows us to take ultimate quality control measures because your order is cut on the CNC machine, assembled and disassembled in the workshop prior to being carefully packed for shipping. 

Your order is not disptached unless we are 100% satisfied it meets the highest standard of craftsmanship.

Yes!

You can make an enquiry from any product page and we will reply with a shipping quote.

Yes!

Our Workshop address is 392 Brunswick 3056, Victoria (Australia).

In a nutshell, easy!

Upon order you will be supplied with a 100% Australian authored and designed electronic PDF (A4 sheet size) assembly manual which is derrived directly from the CAD 3D model iteself. It is easily vewed on a tablet or you may print it if you wish.

No illegible icons or graphics.
No 'lost in translation' moments.
No tearing hair out.

You will require a minimum of two human beings to complete the unit assembly. Human being #2 will be required only for intermittent lifting and positioning of awkward & heavy pieces. 

1. A power driver with a Phillips or 'Pozi' type bit. (a screw driver will suffice but will make the process much slower)

2. Two pairs of strong hands

Our furniture design does not employ problematic ‘cam & dowel’ type connectors which are often found in other flat packed products.

Each unit is easily and precisely assembled using a combination of the following supplied specialty fixing types:

---

Lamello Cabineo

---

Intelligent Fixings Peanut-1

---

Employing these fixings in our furniture designs means that all fixing mounting positions are 'machine' accurate. There is zero error introduced by manual drilling and routing by a human being because a CNC machine controlled by a computer underakes this process. The result is that panel joints sit flush and there is no flexing or forcing pieces during assembly

Film Faced Plywood

Has the look and feel of natural hardwood. The solid colour or transparent film face provides a durable, scratch resistant surface which is easily cleaned with methylated spirits/denatured alcohol and a clean rag.

Optional 'edge dressing'

It is impractical to finish or seal the exposed edges in the cutting workshop. To ensure a premium finish, we ship each unit with a small can of non-toxic bee’s wax and a soft cloth. Upon completion of assembly the user is encouraged to rub the bee’s wax into all exposed edges. Ongoing periodic application (usually once per year after the initial application) of this bee's wax will give the natural hardwood edges a visible warmth and keep your furniture looking fresh through the years.

Any excess bee's wax which winds up on the film faced panel surface can easily be removed with denatured alcohol or methylated spirits and a clean cloth.

In colder months and climates the bees wax may be too viscous to get any workable amount on your rag. It can be thinned out by adding a very small amount of 'gum' turpentine (distilled from the sap of pine trees) to the tin. Make sure you use 'gum' and NOT 'mineral' turpentine.

Sometimes! - Read on..

The primary designer at Fusion Studio Works began life making only custom, 'built to order' studio workstations. While we still have these designs in our CAD archive, most were designed to be assembled and then delivered to the client by two men and a van. The major down side to this production model is the shipping constraints. The geographical delivery radius was limited to the greater Melbourne (AU) area because these units were not intentionally designed to break down to an easily flat packed product for freight & handling. The workstations available on the web store represent the evolution of some of the original desk designs but have been revised to be readily flat packed and are, therefore, easily freighted and user assembled.

Notwithstanding the above, If a unit pictured in the Instagram feed appeals to you, please get in touch via the Get in touch form and we'll see what we can do for you. If you are outside of Melbourne, it will come down to the freight cost of a partially or fully assembled desk to your location.
