I have been working with wood all my life except for a while when I was in the military. I specialize in making custom furniture from Red and White Oak also Cherry, Pine. My happiness is watching someone face after they know they can get what they want and then when they see the finished project.
In 1996 I started this business and after having some success with sharpening service giving my blades the edge they need and will last. Especially going through hard wood. I bought my own sharpeners for planer & jointer blades, chisels gouges, and other lathe tools. Also for saw blades and other knives. I went to the expense to get the better wheel for the carbide blades. The nice thing is I can test the blades out before and after I sharpen them and see the difference. This has proven to be a big help for me and several others I know that need there blades sharpened. Learning this took time and a lot of trial and error on my old blades to fine the right grind to get the cut I wanted. If you need help on your project or blades feel free to contact me.
