About my business - I started out by making a barnwood table for my college age daughters loft. I really enjoyed the experience and people seemed to love the look. My wife insisted I build one for our home and it just took off from there.

I build custom dining tables, coffee and end tables made from reclaimed materials primarily from barns here in Michigan. I also build live edge furniture primarily from Walnut.

This is a part time - for the love of woodworking activity. My 'other' job as a Corporate Financial Analyst payers the bills. Adding a few dollars to the college fund for my 4 kids is nice but isn't what drives me.

I think you'll find my prices to be very fair. Ideally I prefer clients who send me pictures of items they'd like built. I occasionally build pieces and sell them as is. I really hope I can build you that one of a kind piece of furniture that will serve for generations.

    We spent months trying to look for a specific table in furniture stores. And even more time browsing the internet for pictures, but could find nothing that was just right. By chance, we found Gary. We corresponded via email with pictures, idea's etc. He always respond almost immediately. He was able to create exactly what we were looking for. Our table arrived today and in person, it far exceeds our expectations. The time frame from start to delivery was exactly as promised, as well on budget. Simple words .. We are blown away. Can't say thank you enough for such and excellent job and can honestly say Gary exemplifies what customer service should be. Cheers!! Will definitely use again in the future.
