My Journey with Woodworking

I spent most of my childhood outside, exploring the forest and tinkering with whatever sticks, branches and logs I found along the way. I made anything I could imagine out of the wood pieces I found – sturdy forts, sharp spears, bows and quivers of arrows. 
 
Along the way, I grew up. And forgot how alive I felt when I was working with wood, creating the things I could see so clearly in my mind. Then a sudden injury slowed me down, got me back in the shop and lifted the fog of adulthood that had hidden my passion for far too long.
 
Today, woodworking is more than my career, it’s my life – I live, breathe, dream and can even taste it. I can’t believe it took me over 40 years to find my true calling, but I’m so thankful that I did and I’m not turning back.

Why Woodworking?

  • The grain – It flows like a fingerprint throughout the board, which means that no two pieces will ever be alike. 
  • The perspective – Working in the shop allows me let go of the past and keeps me moving forward.
  • The challenge – Every new project requires my mind to stay sharp and creative.
  • The results – Even the hardest and densest of woods can be crafted to perfection. 
  • The pride – I love how proud my wife is of the things I create.

Sunrise to Sunset

Woodworking is the first thing I do each day and the last thing I think of before falling asleep. Some days, I work well into the evening, putting off sleep so I can spend just a few more minutes in my shop. It’s the best feeling in the world to love something this much – and to create a livelihood around it. If you need me, you know where I’ll be.
