Our small woodworking company started when we bought our first home over a decade ago and were doing standard small home renovations ourselves. At that time most of what I knew was taught by my grandfather who was a contractor and built small homes, decks, additions, renovations, etc.
Once most of the major renovations were done in our home, my transition to building custom furniture began. I'm completely self-taught in fine woodworking; I've read countless books and magazines, attended classes and workshops, watched videos, listened to podcasts and have had lots of practice. As with most small businesses, our friends and family were requesting that I create pieces for their homes and this led to more practice and eventually building commission pieces for the general public.
That's where we are today… Located in the greater Chattanooga, TN area specializing in designing and manufacturing custom, handcrafted, heirloom pieces of furniture.
Most of the furniture pieces that are made by us are designed per the client's specifications. Most of the time the design process begins with an inspirational photo or photos of design(s) or style(s) you like. Once I have an idea of the piece, a 3-dimensional drawing is generated in a CAD program to help refine specific design details and features.

For Personalized Maple Walnut Edge Grain Cutting BoardThe cutting board arrived today and it is amazing. The colors of the woods are striking and the monogram is elegant. What a delightful gift this will be for the bride and groom! Lucas was so easy to work with, and so helpful in fine-tuning the monogram design and placement. I won't hesitate to contact him again for another project.

For Custom Kitchen Cutting BoardWe had a very positive experience working with Lucas Clark and would happily do so again. We had a cutting board built into our kitchen cabinets which over the years had become very, very worn. I provided Lucas with the specifications and dimension of the cutting board. He recommended maple as the cutting surface. His communications were very prompt and he provided a very detailed drawing of the proposed board. We agreed to go forward and were given an estimated completion date which was about 30 days out. We did not hear from Lucas for almost 3 weeks and then learned that the board was completed and ready to ship. Fedex took a week to deliver the board, but it arrived very well packed and without damage. My wife is thrilled with her new cutting board! It looks beautiful, matched the specifications, and is very well crafted. It will get many years of daily use in our kitchen. We are greatly pleased with the completed cutting board, the professionalism and craftmanship of Lucas Clark, and do not hesitate to highly recommend Lucas' work to anyone considering a new cutting board.

For Black Walnut And Rock Maple End Grain Chopping BlockLucas was easy to work with on this project. The finished product is incredible, I can’t wait to give it to my wife for Christmas. I will definitely use Lucas for any and all woodworking projects. The only issue I had, which had nothing to do with Lucas, was shipping/delivery by FedEx.
