Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
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 Justin's console table5.0Stan was a pleasure to work with. He understood the requirements. He asked very insightful questions. Provided excellent communication throughout the project. When we weren't sure on a stain color - he provided actual samples of the species of wood we wanted and several stain options. The final product was delivered on-time and in mint condition. Stan is truly a craftsman and cares about his work and his customer. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a quality piece of furniture!

For Bungalow Ottoman5.0We are very happy with the custom-made oak Bungalow ottoman. We needed a piece a specific size to fit at the entrance to our studio to sit and remove shoes and could not find anything ready made commercially that was well made. But Stan made us a beautiful piece that fits exactly the space that is sturdy and fits into the room so nicely. Wd will definitely consider using his services again. Thank you!
