After 35 years as a law enforcement officer in the State of Maine I have happily retired to my workshop, where I've spent a good part of my own time for the past several years. I'm married, with three cats!  I also love to ski, have developed a small Christmas tree plantation and harvest timber off my own property, much of which finds its way into my woodworking projects (or my stove!) 

I've become accustomed to being "of an age". Many valuable things come with that. My personal favorites are serenity, perspective and a touch of whimsy. I rarely work on more than one or two projects at a time and I admit to being slow and methodical. If you are looking for a quick deadline on your project, I'm afraid I'm not your boy. If you want a carefully crafted custom piece at a fair price and you're of a mind with me, then maybe I am.

I know very well that ordering a piece online based on photos and copy written to sell you something takes a bit of an "act of faith".  Because of that I offer a money back guarantee. If the piece I make for you is not completely satisfying, ship it back to me within thirty days and I'll refund your money (including your shipping), no questions asked. If things go as they normally do this shouldn't be an issue, but . . .

I'd encourage you to make contact with me, at least initially, by email. (I'm too old to play phone tag!!)

Take your time and think it over.
