I have been designing and building furniture for over 40 years. With retirement, came an opportunity to attend woodworking classes, providing an appreciation for the use of machine tools, hand tool skills and learning from instructors who are the best in their given areas of expertise. Bench Dog Woodworks became a reality.
Favorite pieces in the last couple of years have spanned many styles from the Arts and Crafts period (the designs of Stickley, Limbert, Greene & Greene) to Shaker, mid-century modern, live edge and the use of reclaimed wood. As I learn more about 17th and 18th century woodworking techniques, carving, veneer and inlay are finding their way into my work.
Customization is a specialty. Provide an idea in the form of a photo or a rough sketch and I will work with you to refine the design and turn it into a functional piece.
Traditional joinery techniques (such as mortise and tenon and dovetails) are employed resulting in a more lasting, quality piece. The extra labor involved is often reflected in my pricing.
If you buy something and are not satisfied with the result, I will work with you to make adjustments.
If you need an item by a specific date or for a specific event, please let me know prior to accepting a proposal.

For maple coffee table with tiesThe final table is wonderful. Stan worked with us every step of the way from finding the right slab to getting the perfect legs for the finished piece. If we can manage to add a few more similar items to the house in the future, we will talk to Stan again.

For CredenzaI am beyond thrilled with my final product, but also with Stan's willingness to work with me. He kept me updated with emails and photos, he was willing to meet with me at a lumber yard to choose a live edge slab for the top, more than reasonably priced in my opinion..
I can't thank Stan enough.

For Edward's Dining TableMy wife and I are very happy with our table base. This was our first custom made piece and Stan at Bench Dog made it a pleasurable experience. Stan was patient and quick to respond to my many questions and completed the project on time. He was also willing to apply a finish he had yet to work with, and it came out perfect to match the chairs we have on order. A slight imperfection on a leg is the only reason not a 5 star rating. We recommend Bench Dog as Stan will be our first call on any future projects.

For Library Browsing StoolStan was very accommodating in making this small bench. Finish time and shipping were earlier than first estimated. Upon arrival I found very nice handcrafted piece. Highly recommended!

For Black Walnut Console TableStan was a joy to work with, keeping us informed every step of the way. The sofa table he made for us arrived in perfect condition and ahead of schedule. It is absolutely beautiful and met our every expectation. I believe the box Stan constructed for shipping would have survived even if it had fallen off the truck. Thanks for everything!
