Meet the Maker
Rick Hensley
Rockytop Woodworks
Specializing in Arts and Crafts and Mission style furniture. I especially like to build from the harvesting of the tree. I only harvest trees downed from storm damage or being removed for construction purposes. I will have the log sawn and I will dry and mill the lumber myself. Native woods I like to work with most are Walnut, White and Red Oak, Cherry, Ash, Pecan, Hickory and Pine. I also have a source for west Texas Mesquite. I will build your furniture from the wood of your choosing be it domestic or exotic. Each peice is built by me and finished one at a time. Your furniture is the most important. I have been working with wood for over 30 years and continue to gain knowledge and refine my skills. I look forward to visiting with you and discussing your furniture design. My desire is to build you that special heirloom you have always wanted. From the Forest to your home.

Apr 22, 2014I am very happy with the curio table. Fit, finish and appearance are excellent. Rick Hensley and I communicated as needed during the project and I talked with him face to face several times. He is a skilled craftsman, nice person and one who meets his commitments.

Sep 17, 2013Rick was fantastic! From the very beginning he was in constant communication with me and sent pictures on a regular basis. He was able to take a sample from another piece of furniture and match the cherry wood and finish so that our end tables fit in perfectly with our other decor. We have custom built, beautiful cherry end tables that will last a life time.
