Our Story

blue benchphoneIn the corner of my workshop sits a little blue bench.  Despite the flurry of activity in the shop the bench never gets moved.  Nearly every day one of my children perches on the bench to chatter about a discovery, question me on a million different topics or ask if I want help with my work.  My wife rests on the bench for a moment to fill me in on her busy day.  Good friends stop by and sit on the bench to chat - or to ask if they can borrow a tool!

Over the years that blue bench has come to symbolize time with family, friends and the familiarity of my favorite things.  Custom woodworking is not a job for me - it's a love, an art, and a skill developed over time.

Blue Bench Woodworking is not just about building furniture.  It's about designing a one-of-a-kind piece that will display craftsmanship - beautiful, enduring and classic.
