I’m a custom furniture builder in the rural town of Acton, California. I have been woodworking seriously for the last ten years, and in 2002 I started selling my work through a very high profile designer in the Los Angeles area. With her clients and along with a few long time clients of my own I’ve been able to stay very busy.

I see some familiar names here, so maybe I know some of you already. I hope to make some new friends too. Lumberjocks seems like a friendly place and I hope to share what I do know, and hopefully learn some of what I don’t. I love posting my projects so I will be doing that too.

Some of you have already welcomed me just from my signing up and filling out my profile….....

Amazing and Thank You.

Welcome to Lumberjocks. The projects are an inspiration, the information is priceless and the people are supportive. The only problem is, the site can get addictive.

God Bless
