Bench Dog Woodworks
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.
Stan worked up a nice design and it turned out great.
Outstanding experience all-around! Very friendly, very professional.... I know where to go if we need any woodworking down the road. Thanks, Stan!
Stan 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!
It was a true delight to work with Stan, he made a beautiful wooden box, I look forward to work with Stan on wood projects in the future. His work is very elegant with beautiful finish and great attention to details, he is so nice and pleasent to communitcate with.
My 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.
