Behind the Craft

The shop behind the signs, boards, and boxes.

Every sign, cutting board, backdrop, coin display, and box we build starts with the right hardwood and the right machine for the job. Here's what's actually in the shop, and where we still take on select CNC routing, laser, and prototyping work.

Tooling / MCH-01

In-house machines

No outsourcing. Every cut, engraving, and finish happens in the same shop, in Parker, Colorado.

Materials

Real hardwood, and the materials that support it.

Walnut, maple, oak, and cherry make up most of what leaves the shop. We also keep plywoods, resins, acrylics, metals, and composites on hand for CNC and prototyping projects.
