I am a Desert Storm, Iraq, and Afghanistan Veteran. I have been wood working most of my life. At 53 I was looking for something to do when I retire from my day job (Helicopter Mechanic). So I started building Memorial Flag Cases for fellow Veterans and their families.
I take great pride in crafting heirloom quality pieces that will last a life time. I try to use reclaimed urban lumber, (yard trees that were going to end up in the dump or fire wood). All the joinery is done the old fashion way, mortise & tenon, spline joints and so on.

For Custom Kimono StandI had a Kimono stand made to display a needlepoint piece. Communication with the artist was both prompt and detailed. I provided him with size measurements, pictures of samples and finishing. I received the finished stand in short order and it is perfect! I am very pleased with the workmanship and would recommend him with reservation. Well done!
