I own and operate a production shop combining both wood and metals, producing custom cabinetry and mill work for over five decades. I was brought up in an era where 'Made in USA' really meant something and I continue to advocate the belief that Americans should always buy products made here in our country as first choice. While it is difficult to build anything without using some parts brought in from offshore sources, the labor of building should always be homegrown! Pride in our country is reflected in every piece leaving my shop and I will continue to build unique projects until they come and pry the tools from my cold, dead hands... Love the USA! My avatar is a solid teak dining room table we built years ago, one of my very first quality heirloom pieces. I'm humbled to say it was featured in an article on a large project we completed that made the pages of Architectural Digest back in the 1970's. My cover photo is one of several wine store projects recently completed.
