Great service

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

After 27 years in the U.S. Army, Red Jake’s founder, Rusty Sears decided to make his passion his profession. Having made pieces for himself for years and after purchasing a wood mill, Rusty gradually began to make furniture and artwork for neighbors and friends. Thru disciplined customer focus and attention to detail, he built a loyal customer base. Although much of our time is spent in the shop working on projects, we still spend enough time in the woods gathering logs to keep our hearts happy!
At Red Jake, we are responsible for every step of our product from the forest to final product. Almost all our wood was saved from landfills or wood piles as a result of storms, new construction, or the death of the tree. We mill the wood to meet our needs, dry the wood in a solar kiln, and make pieces to order.
Located in the Shenandoah Valley of northern Virginia, we proudly limit our wood to those found in the area. Our wood shed is filled mainly with Black Walnut, White Oak, Red Oak and Cherry. We have our signature pieces that you’ll find posted on the site, but we also can custom make pieces that meet your needs.

Maker Policy

We will always send the customer several photos of the finished piece before delivery. If there are issues with the piece, we will make corrections or remake the piece (we've never had a problem selling the original piece). If the customer accepts the photos, and the project is shipped, I do not accept returns unless there is damage in the shipping. For unique pieces I may request a non-refundable deposite as I may have trouble selling the piece if the customer cancels after I've started the piece.
