About Me
Woodworking has been a passion of mine since I was a kid growing up in Newfoundland, and would deconstruct things just so I could rebuild them. In High School, I maximized the space in my tiny bedroom by building myself a loft bed out of my Dad’s workshop. Shortly after, I combined woodworking with my other passion, drumming, and taught myself to build a snare drum from scratch.
After flying the nest and landing in Toronto, I built out my first shop. It was a 40 sqft basement cellar that leaked worse than a bad marketing scheme, but it was mine, and I loved it.
When the pandemic hit, a reduced load at work meant that I had the opportunity to spend more time in my shop – now a 120 sqft windowless basement room. My friends and family had been telling me to film my work for years, so I finally succumbed to peer pressure and launched my YouTube channel in 2020.
Now I'm stoked to be operating out of a tiny 220 sqft single-car garage that I renovated myself. I often cater to audiences with small shops because that's what I know best. I hope that through watching my trials and errors in the shop, by sharing my expertise, discoveries, and designs, I can inspire other hobbyist woodworkers to explore and expand their own craft. I sell plans and courses to take out the guesswork and give fellow woodworkers the chance to build alongside me.
