Custom furniture & joinery · Launceston, Tasmania
Furniture made the slow way, from Tasmanian timber.
A two-bench workshop making dining tables, built-ins and restorations in blackwood, Tasmanian oak, Huon pine and myrtle — joined by hand, finished in oil, built to be handed down.

Joint explorer
The joints that hold it together.
Good furniture is held by its joinery, not its screws. Pick a joint and press Assemble — we've made each part from a different timber so you can see how they lock.
Drag the joint to turn it around.
Commissions
From first chat to delivery, measured out.
Every commission follows the same five steps. You'll see drawings before we cut anything and photos while it's on the bench.

Good to know
Questions we hear at the bench.
How long is the wait?
Most commissions start 6–10 weeks after the deposit and take 6–14 weeks to make, depending on size. We'll give you a start date with the quote.
Do you deliver to the mainland?
Yes. We crate larger pieces and book freight; small pieces go by post. Freight is quoted separately.
Can I visit the workshop?
Please do — by appointment, Tuesday to Saturday. It's a working shop, so closed shoes are a good idea.
How do I look after an oiled finish?
Wipe with a damp cloth, use coasters for hot dishes, and re-oil every year or two. Each piece comes with a care card and a small tin of the oil we used.

Come and see the timber rack.
The best way to choose a timber is to see it in daylight. Book a time and we'll pull boards for you.
