About

An engineer who builds signs, boards, and boxes by hand.

Foxgrain Fabrication is a one-person hardwood shop in Parker, Colorado, run by an engineer with 30+ years of experience designing things that have to actually work, now applied to signs, cutting boards, backdrops, coin displays, and boxes.

Foxgrain Fabrication started as a CNC and engineering shop, and still keeps that machine capability. But most days now, the work is a lot more personal: a family crest for someone's cabin, an end grain butcher block for someone's kitchen, a coin case for someone's retirement.

Every piece still gets the same engineering discipline as the shop's original work — the right wood for the job, the right joinery, a finish that actually holds up — just applied to things people keep in their homes instead of on a factory floor.

Based in Parker, Colorado, with local delivery around Denver Metro and shipping nationwide.

Principles / PRN-01

How we work

A short, opinionated list of how we run jobs.

/ 01

Real hardwood, real joinery.

No cheap material shortcuts. If the job calls for a certain wood, that's what goes on the bench.

/ 02

Honest scoping.

If your idea is going to be expensive, we'll tell you why, and how to make it work within your budget.

/ 03

Built to be kept.

Every sign, board, or box is finished to hold up for years, not just to look good in a photo.

/ 04

Single point of contact.

You talk to the person actually building your piece. No handoffs, no broken telephone.
