Great service

This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.

After spending more than a decade in the building industry I realized two things: I hated building houses, no matter how big, and that I loved building furniture and cabinetry, no matter how small.

It started with a jewelry box that I made for my wife. You would think someone who had been involved in the building trade as long as I had been would be able to say at some point he had build a box but I realized, as strange as it seemed, that I hadn't. I became obsessed, with this tiny, six sided box that was all joined using hand cut box joints. I poured hours of my life into that tiny box but it was the best thing I have ever done. From there, my obsession turned to furniture and bigger, more precise joining methods.

Since the box that started it all, I have decided that woodworking is what I want to do with my life and so I started Prairie Mountain Woodworking. I work out of a tiny shop--but its perfect. Most of my work is done away from big, loud machinery and I pride myself and my attention to detail. I'm also in love with the idea that if I do my job in the building, and the buyer does theres in the care taking, the pieces I make will live on long after I am gone--that's pretty cool.

Shipping Policy

It would be a shame to let something as silly as shipping to keep a client from being able to enjoy the pieces they desire. That being said, I understand that when it comes to shipping large items things get a bit expensive. Because every piece is a different size and weight, it is hard to put a standard on the shipping method. If possible, and practical, I prefer to deliver the pieces in person and if we life within 100 miles of each other, its FREE. Farther than that, well, we can figure it out. But lets agree on one thing: if you want it, I'll get it to you.

Maker Policy

This is one of those awkward things no one likes to talk about so lets talk about the positive first. I back everything I make 100%. If it breaks (under normal use) or does not meet (hopefully exceed) your expectations and the agreement we've made prior I will absolutely refund your purchase or make the required adjustments. As far as cancellations go, the down payment is non-refundable. This sucks, I know, but your down payment doesn't go into my bank account but to the lumber yard for the required material. That being said, I understand things happen and come up so I will always be willing to work with you as much as possible if a cancellation needs to be made; obviously, the sooner the better as I will be unable to refund any money that has been spend on your project.
