I am a fourth generation woodworker and have been building things since I was about 7 or 8 years old. I was given the encouragement by my father and grandfather to figure out how to do stuff on my own at an early age. I have been a professional cabinetmaker for over 25 years, and I still enjoy figuring out how to build things almost 40 years later. 

I had always wanted to learn the art of woodturning, but the demands of family life and running my own cabinet company seemed to put that earlier wish to the sidelines. I finally got into turning several years back, and it felt like something that was just supposed to be. After starting with a small wood lathe off ebay, I worked my way up to a dedicated heavy duty bowl lathe. I have also been teaching my youngest son Max to turn, as well. So far it seems that he is the only one of our 4 children that inherited my love for woodworking. 

I plan to use this site to showcase our woodturnings. Please visit again for future updates. You can also visit my custom cabinet shop website by going to www.tntcustomcabinets.com
