I am an independent artist/artisan working exclusively in reclaimed, recycled, upcycled and found materials.

i make the useless useful again. i make worthless things priceless.

from conception, to making it to sweeping up, i am a one-man operation - by design.

my work is not for everyone. my customers are people who want truly unique, one-of-a-kind pieces that are made fairly and ethically from locally salvaged materials - with as small a footprint as i can muster.

i will make and ship things all over the united states (depending on size) but i prefer to work regionally (Boston to NYC and thereabouts).

listed on this page are some pieces i've made for others and some pieces i have available for sale. but what i really want to do is design and make what YOU want. let's do it!

be good,
tim

oh yeah, at youtube.com/timsway you will find more than one hundred video of things i've made.

    Tim made me a desk that fit into my bay window space exactly how I envisioned. He was quick, communicative, and precise. He is a top quality craftsman who can be relied on.

    I had an amazing experience working with Tim, from start to finish. He helped me figure out (from a pretty vague initial idea) exactly what I wanted, kept me updated along the way with progress videos, and -- most importantly -- delivered a kick-ass product at the end. I can't wait to work with Tim again -- so should you!

    Tim was a joy to work with. He was able to take our very primitive ideas and turn them into beautiful, functional pieces of art! Tim created both a kitchen table and hutch that exceeded our expectations. We can't say enough about the quality of his work, the ease with which we were able to communicate and our eagerness to work with him again…all around a great experience!

    I can't say enough how impressed I was with Tim and his constant communication to ensure the wooden chest he made for me was exactly what I wanted. I was so unsure of what wood I wanted so he sent me pics of different choices and finally we found a winner! My wooden storage chest has a proud place in our 1892 farmhouse.
    Great workmanship…great guy! Thanks Tim!

    For Bar Cart

    We asked Tim to design a bar cart for us and he did a fantastic job. We gave him a budget and he came up with a great design for our cart. This included a sweet set of wheels made from old water valves. Tim was very responsive and helpful throughout the process, and if we need something else made we will be going back to Tim.
