I make Exotic wood items right here in South Florida from native trees we have harvested and aged for years. Available exotic woods are Florida Live Oak, Mahogany (pic of swing as shown) Albizia, Tamarind, Rosewood, and Florida Cherry. E-Mail for wood sample pic's. Shown is a 56" wide porch swing. These can be made you your custom requirements. Some assembly may be required. Custom pieces can be commissioned and built to your specifications, sizes and colors. You can choose the type of exotic woods and the finishes. You can even pick out the exact slabs we use to produce your piece at the sawmill during the milling process. Dining room tables, side bars, benches, coffee tables, chairs, bookshelf units, wall units, wall mounted shelves, custom made picture frames, kitchen & bath countertops can all be custom built for you out of exotic woods. One-of-a-kind pieces of wood art with or without live edges is what we do. . . If you can imagine it . . .we can build it. Thx. Dave Sutton

My name is Dave Sutton.
Retiring after fifteen years of being a professional flats guide here in South Florida due to the 2009 recession and the gulf oil spill.
I then worked at home for Hotel Vanities International and have a small, but very well equipped wood shop in the back yard.
I have now moved to the mountains of Murphy, North Carolina and am in the process of building my retirement home and new workshop.

For almost 40 years I have given my very best effort to create heirloom quality pieces for every one of my customers that will last a lifetime.

Almost 4 decades of wood crafting has taught me one thing. If I want it done just right…
I have to do it myself.
If I don't like it, you won't see it. It's that simple.

I am the designer, craftsman and woodworker,
I pick the log and the slabs, I do the shaping and all the sanding. All of the assembly and fitting ??? Yup…all me.
I also do the hand rubbed finishes myself as well.

I learned my trade growing up in Rhode Island building handmade strip-wood canoes, hand made cabinets, slab furniture and working in various shipyards on the coast of Maine till I moved to Florida in 1990.

Finding all of the exotic woods available to me here was amazing. I was like a little kid in a candy store.

I now have built and moved into my retirement cabin in Murphy, NC and have just finished my new workshop. I love the mountains and the people here …

    Dave was very easy to work with, especially considering that I needed a lot of advice and suggestions on what would work for what I needed. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. The table legs he created were perfect for my table. Highly recommended!

    I am extremely happy with the walking stick handmade for me by David Sutton. It exemplifies topnotch craftsmanship and is exactly the piece I wanted. I simply could not have wished for a better outcome. Thank you, David!

    Sturdy, good looking staff. Directions for creating the staff could have been followed a little better (actual shape/angle/design of head and the stain color), but still a good production overall.

    Dave's woodworking craftsmanship is superb. He followed my specifications exactly and went the extra mile to install some additional hardware required to make the installation easier. I picked up the project myself at Dave's shop and he showed me other specialty furniture items he is creating for other clients. I was so impressed that I went home to look for more projects for Dave! Highly recommended.
