Meet the Team

  • Henry Briggs

    CO-FOUNDER

    Henry Briggs has been a woodworker for over a decade. He has had a passion for designing and making unique pieces that quickly draw your attention. He was born and raised in central Illinois, but moved out to Cheney, Washington in 2019. He quickly acquired a house with a shop and it wasn’t long before he decided to start a woodworking business and pursue his dream job.

  • Garrett Trotter

    CO-FOUNDER

    Garrett Trotter only started his woodworking journey a few years ago, but has been obsessed with it from the time he started. He first discovered his passion after prying boards from his basement walls and turning them into his family entertainment center, with the help of Henry and his shop.

    Shortly after that, Garrett and Henry decided to try and make furniture for a living and haven’t looked back since.

    Garrett graduated from Eastern Washington University in 2019 and was a teacher in the Cheney School District for 3 years before deciding to pursue woodworking full time.
