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 George's HumidorI considered maybe putting a 4 stars for value because I simply do not know about what I was buying since I did not do much research but changed to 5 because working with Stan was an excellent experience on all other fronts.
The quality of work looks great and the customization was a breeze.
He is definitely a professional.
Thanks Stan.

For MY BenchStan did a great job of providing me with a large bench to replace a sofa in my living room. With collaborative input on design, materials and finish he produced a fine piece, ahead of schedule with expertise and utmost professionalism. It was a pleasure to work with him and see my concept
become a beautiful addition to my home furnishings. Five Stars!

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.
