For over 35 years I have designed and built fine handcrafted furniture, cabinets, and built-ins for many clients. I am now retired and no longer accepting commissions from clients although I continue to spend time in my workshop.
While designing and building furniture I also wrote many posts on design and construction, some of which continue to be viewed frequently enough that I have chosen to continue to make them available as regular web pages through the links provided below. Information on my Shaker-style workbench as been one of the most frequently visited pages and can be accessed through the “Workbenches and our Work” link below.
