This is part of my story: I grew up woodworking and apprenticing under my father. He was a shop teacher for 33 years & a woodworker his entire life. Some of our best memories were in the shop or on the job-site. I’m an engineer by training, but leader by trade. I've moved around 6x during the past 10 years for my job in the Army. I've renovated several houses & built furniture for my family, friends and customers along the way. Its not easy to keep a shop that’s both fully-capable and moves easily, so I designed my layout to solve most of those challenges.
In 2015, I was encouraged to share some of my experience and passions for teaching, woodworking & doing so in a 'small' footprint. This was when I launched my business, Benchtop Woodworks. This has all been in my limited 'spare time' I have been deliberate to not allow it to compete with family time and other priorities. By purchasing one of my plans or made to order items, you’ve helped me to continue doing what I enjoy & support my family. I'm very grateful for your business and support. Be sure to check out my free shop layout guide to help you maximize your shop space! Feel free to share with others that might be able to get some use from it!
