about Mike

I have worn many hats in my career and noticed that in each of these roles three significant elements come into play:

material science, mechanics and appropriate craftsmanship.


It has been a lifelong endeavour to learn and apply these elements into each and every project I have worked on.


Be it making a custom wood tile backsplash or milling hardwood with an Alaskan chainsaw mill; installing a hydronic heat pump system or replacing rotors and brakes on a car; hammering sheet copper into a still or steel into a plow blade guide; welding toward public sculpture or to fix a trailer hitch; building a staircase or raising a woodshed; creating brass and steel mounts for precious artefacts or making jewellery for loved ones.


I am eager to assist you with my skill sets and to learn new ones.
