Woodworker and Entrepreneur

Hello! I’m David W. Martin, a passionate woodworker and entrepreneur dedicated to crafting unique and practical items that bring beauty to everyday life. Creativity runs deep in my family through the art of painting, and while I may not wield a paintbrush, I find immense joy in creating stunning wooden pieces that serve a purpose.

My journey into the world of woodworking began with a thoughtful birthday gift from my wife—a mini-lathe. This gift ignited my passion for crafting items such as pens, shaving kits, and kitchen tools, which I initially made as heartfelt gifts for family and friends. However, as I approached retirement, I realized that I didn’t want to sit idle. Instead, I wanted to share my creations with others and bring additional revenue during this new chapter of my life. So in 2022, I took the leap into entrepreneurship by selling my handcrafted products at pop-up craft markets.

At my shop, you’ll find a diverse range of items, including elegant office accessories like handmade wood and acrylic pens, pencils, and letter openers. I also specialize in kitchen accessories, offering beautiful cutting and charcuterie boards, as well as hand-turned handles for measuring cups and knives. For those who enjoy a good drink, I create wine and cocktail accessories such as bottle stoppers, cork removal tools, and bar tool sets, along with unique cocktail smokers. Additionally, I craft cornhole boards and fishing rods featuring hand-turned components, perfect for outdoor enthusiasts.

My mission is to provide customers with unique, practical, and beautiful gifts that stand out. I use high-quality hardwoods like walnut, cherry, maple, and oak, alongside epoxy resin and acrylics, to enhance the aesthetic appeal of my creations. What sets my work apart is not just the wide range and quality of products I offer, but my unwavering commitment to craftsmanship. I strive for perfection in every detail and choose materials that resonate with beauty and elegance.

Customer service is at the heart of my business philosophy. I firmly believe in ensuring every customer leaves satisfied and eager to return. Thank you for considering my creations, and I look forward to sharing my passion with you!
