Hi, I’m Tom. Growing up in rural Nova Scotia, Canada my appreciation for wood started at a young age when spending time in the woods and my grandmother’s house soaking up the beauty of nature and developing an appreciation for ‘old wooden things’. What followed was a lot of self education by reading every book and magazine that I could find. Over the years, I’ve also had opportunities to learn and be influenced by experienced woodworking professionals through attending workshops and educational events. Listening to and learning from the wisdom of those who have come before me has not only taught me about design, joinery and wood tools, they have also instilled in me the understanding that if it something is worth doing, it’s worth doing my best and doing it right. To me that means understanding that being a woodworker is a learning process that is never complete. What brought me to start my own business you ask? Well, while working in the world of Canadian transportation logistics I realized that I was most content and satisfied when I was creating in my workshop. So, with a substantial amount of encouragement and support of my wife Jennifer, I took the giant leap of turning the passion I had for ‘playing in the shop’ on the weekends into a full time business. Together, we have the privilege of having others enjoy our timeless pieces. I spend most of my days in my workshop, often with my trusty companion Kay-cee, transforming different species of solid wood into one of a kind cabinets and tables, memorial pieces, boxes and cases, clocks, kitchen ware and serving boards. Jennifer provides the ‘behind the scenes’ support. Together we endeavor to capture the essence of the locally sourced wood we work with to create a beautiful, functional piece that will not have to be replaced and can be passed down for future generations to use and enjoy.

5 out of 5 starsI made a glasses case purchase from this shop four years ago back in 2022. I really like Tom's craftsmanship that he puts into his cases, so I purchased two more cases this year. EXCELLENT QUALITY WOOD!!!

5 out of 5 starsTom’s customer service was outstanding and matched by the quality of this step stool. I am using it in a walk-in closet with 9’ ceilings to help me reach the top shelves that go up to the ceiling. When not used as a step stool, it makes a great small seat.

5 out of 5 starsThis walnut ring box is everything I had hoped it would be (and more). I love the classic colour and the leather finish inside looks great. It also arrived very quickly, despite this being an international order! Tom the seller kept me updated at every stage. Needless to say I am very happy.
