I love working on new projects where I’m able to let my creativity shine! These are the first awards I’ve ever made. They’re made for the NJRMA’s Retail Merchants of the Year: Lowes and Home Depot. It’s only fitting they get an award made from reclaimed wood! 🙂 Each award features a one of a […]

So I used a lot of pallets to finish the 8×4′ table. In the process a lot of scraps were created. Luckily, I hear both my house and workshop with wood. But, I also reuse a lot of scraps that I create. Nothing gets wasted. Here is a tree sculpture I made from the oak […]
I recently returned from an awesome hiking trip to the High Peaks region of the Adirondacks in upper state New York. Here is one photo taken with my iPhone 5S on the summit (4099′) of a good friend Rory on Big Slide Mountain. I plan on posting more photos from my trip soon!

I’m making them from reclaimed cedar, which is left with its natural patina. They’re around 8″ square by 12″ tall. So far I’ve made two prototypes and the second will […]

Also, talking with other artists at events is also something I love. 🙂 My next event is this Sunday, the 20th. I’m happy to be attending the Country […]
I was asked to help finish a table using reclaimed wood. It was made by a client out of 3/4″ plywood, 1-bys, and pine legs. It’s solid and is countertop height. It’s 96×48″. To finish the table I sourced quality pallets that were made with hardwood, mostly oak. I had a few but found more […]
