This web site, designed with 21st Century technology, is created to show you classic, original, and fantasy furniture made with 18th Century techniques.

The pieces are made one at a time, very carefully, by one dusty old guy who works by himself in an ancient log cabin. In a world where furniture makers call themselves artists, Jake pokes fun by building pieces that are designed to make you laugh. He also makes "normal" pieces of almost any style, a few of which are shown here. If you'd like either a funny or traditional piece, contact Jake to discuss particulars. He's most always in the shop, thinking up more designs that will put a little humor into a too serious world.
