How Tree to Thee Woodworking Began
How did Tree to Thee get started? In the early 80’s, I remember going into a furniture store in Norfolk. I asked a salesman why two sofas, that looked the same, were priced many thousands of dollars apart.
The salesman took me into the back and we tore two damaged sofas apart. He showed me their construction and taught me some of the basics of furniture building. This sparked a real interest for me in good quality furniture.
I saw that a large amount of furniture out there was poorly constructed. I believed I could do better, so began to teach myself woodworking and furniture building.
Lots of items and many years later, I have learned many lessons in the construction and designing of furniture. The objective is to make good quality at a price that will not break the bank for most people but will give them a piece that will last generations. This is a founding principle of Tree to Thee Woodworking.
