About the Studio

Bench Line Studio is a woodworking studio based in Las Vegas, focused on creating heirloom-quality goods using traditional hand tools and time-tested woodworking techniques. I build each piece to a clear standard: it should be well made, functional, and durable enough to be passed on.

My work is rooted in traditional hand-tool woodworking, emphasizing control, material understanding, and long-term performance. Quality, to me, means more than appearance—it means sound joinery, stable materials, and finishes that improve through years of use.

Beyond making lasting objects, Bench Line Studio exists to preserve and share the knowledge behind them. Through continual learning and teaching, my goal is to contribute to a craft tradition that remains practical, relevant, and alive for the next generation.

About the Maker

Bench Line Studio is run by a single maker focused on hand-tool woodworking and traditional craft. My work is shaped by continual practice, study, and refinement of time-tested techniques, with an emphasis on durability, function, and long-term use. Teaching and sharing these skills is an extension of the work itself—an effort to ensure that practical craft knowledge remains relevant and accessible.

How I Work

My process is rooted in traditional hand-tool woodworking, emphasizing material understanding, accuracy, and durability. Each piece begins with careful material selection, followed by shaping and joining using saws, planes, and chisels—methods chosen for their control, precision, and longevity

Craft Philosophy

  • Materials

    Lumber is selected for stability, grain structure, and long-term performance. Understanding how wood moves and ages informs design and construction decision.

  • Craft

    Traditional hand-tool woodworking allows for precise control, direct feedback, and thoughtful problem-solving. These methods prioritize accuracy, repairability, and an intimate understanding of the material.

  • Longevity

    Pieces are designed to last for decades, be repaired rather than replaced, and improve through use. Durability is treated as a design requirement, not an afterthought.

Why I Make

I make things because practical craft knowledge matters. Objects built with care, understanding, and respect for materials tend to last longer, be repaired rather than discarded, and carry meaning beyond their immediate use.

By building with traditional hand tools and sharing what I learn along the way, my goal is to contribute to a living craft tradition—one that remains useful, relevant, and accessible to the next generation.
