About HoosierWoodCrafter

My woodworking journey began in a small shop under my parents’ house during my junior high and high school years. I can still recall the smell of sawdust and the warmth of the wood-fired potbelly stove as I crafted various projects. Working on the wood lathe, I even sold my creations at local art shows while in high school.

My passion for woodworking continued throughout my career as a chemical engineering professor. In recent years, I embraced laser engraving, creating intricate pieces like Christmas ornaments, urns, signs, and more. Now retired, I focus on producing and selling high-quality, personalized wood-crafted products that connect with people and their stories.
