About Us
I try and keep a constant flow of activity in my one man shop. With projects ranging from kitchen cabinets to Adirondack chairs to pens turned on the lathe, I continually strive to improve my skills as a craftsman.  

My mission is to create quality furniture that is functional and useful for generations.

 

I am a self taught woodworker that relies on the few bits of information aquired in shop classes from junior high and high school and the wealth of knowledge gained from discussions with other woodworkers.

 


 

History:

 

Located in rural New Hampshire, I have been creating various projects to update my own home.  Projects in 2005 included two Adirondack chairs that were donated to an auction to raise money for the Hurricane Katrina Relief Fund.

 

One personal goal is to provide a house full of furniture to each of my three daughters.


 

Special Thanks:
I'd like to thank these three individuals for their impact and influence on my getting started in woodworking.

 

Norm Abrams: - his show "New Yankee Workshop" is what really got me to thinking that woodworking is something that I can do.

 

Thomas Moser: - the elegance and openess of his designs has helped guide me to where I'd like to go with my own work. His book Measured Shop Drawings for American Furniture has been a tremendous asset.

 

Jennifer - my wife. words cannot express my appreciation of her support.
