Hair Stick

I have always been the artistic type. I enjoy creating something from nothing, and I have found my calling in wood. After receiving a certificate in architectural woodwork, I was having no luck finding work in the field. So, out of my tiny 4x8 foot back porch, I decided to start up my own business in custom woodwork. Generally, I prefer to use recycled materials like broken down furniture pieces, old pallets, or construction site scraps. I also prefer to use hand tools. The only exception is my Dremel for carving, a cordless drill, and a small power sander for speeding up restoration projects. I find that hand tools give everything I make more soul and a true blood and sweat quality. These methods were born out of necessity. Starting out with a budget of $0, all I have is whatever tools I have been able acquire over the years and whatever materials I can find. I am new to the small business world, but with opportunities like CustomMade, the undying support of my better half, and little luck, I will make my mark in the wood world and grow this business beyond my tiny back porch.
