The Name

When I first set out to make something of the wood laying around in my garage, I put on my headphones and hit shuffle on my favorite playlist. The punchy first four power chords of Metallica’s “Whiplash” rang through.

The song is energizing and frenetic. The main riff, if I had to guess, chugs along at the same tempo as a table saw blade whirring through a fine piece of ambrosia maple.

This is how all projects start. Wood meets metal.

The Goal

This is fairly simply:

Create products that I enjoy making and, with any luck, others will also enjoy those creations.

The Products

All creations are produced from locally, and ethically sourced lumber..

The same goes for all finishes and oils.

The Woodworker

My Name is Doug and I live in Western North Carolina and I like woodworking.

This is a passion project of mine that started as a hobby, and outlet for the need to be creative, and has become something more.
