Traditional Artisanship

Custom Craftwork for Home and Business

Craftsman style trestle table with top made from a salvaged pipe organ lid. Shop sawn veneer on the legs displays quartersawn white oak on all four sides.

Custom Woodworking

I make furniture, architectural molding, timber frames, and other custom wood pieces. Made with traditional hand tools and methods, my work is built to last and to be repairable by future generations. I particularly enjoy making simple, elegant, and functional pieces intended for everyday living rather than showrooms.

Custom Work

Pipe racks, small boxes, welded chain lamps, plate racks, porch swings, built-in shelves, etc. These are usually custom pieces designed and built in the shop that don’t fit neatly into the "furniture" category.
