My goal is to make items similarly to how they were made 150+ years ago. Every house had different styles of chairs, tables, and other furniture. No one went to the local furniture store and bought the same thing their neighbors had. It was hand-made and individualized by a local craftsman. I specialize in post and rung chairs, but also make other solid wood furniture such as tables, cabinets, and keepsake boxes.
I primarily make post and rung chairs (also known as ladderbacks) from locally available hardwoods. Several styles and wood species are available. I may also be available for repairs and reseating, depending on workloads. I can offer custom tables and other furniture as well.
See the Portfolio section of my website for examples of my work.
