Dodge Custom Woodworking is located in Sandwich, New Hampshire in the foothills of the beautiful White Mountains and within view of 4000' Mount Whiteface. I operate a small, traditional cabinet shop, making wooden products in a very old style. My usual materials are native woods like white pine, cherry, ash, oak, butternut, walnut, and others. I prefer to finish the work with non-toxic finishes like hand-rubbed oil, varnish, carnauba wax, and old fashioned colonial milk paint. My designs are close adaptations of Shaker and other early American designs, sometimes modified for modern usage. When I saw the first Shaker sewing desk sell for $250,000, I knew I could never afford the real antiques, so I set out to create reproductions as close to the original as possible. My joinery is genuine mortice and tenon type, known for its strength.

Please check my categories for other pages with thumbnails showing kitchens, cupboards, chairs, tables, windows, doors, desks, beds and much more. Oh, and when I'm not doing cabinets and furniture I also like to reproduce early interior trim. I have restored many antique houses and given them new life. Maybe you live in an old house that could use my services. I have removed old massive timbers that have succumbed to dry rot and replaced them with historically appropriate materials. At other times I have built new timber framed structures such as barns and houses etc. using the genuine mortice and tenon joinery with large oak pegs. My reproduction finish work includes wide pine flooring up to 24", old style bead and feather panelling, Georgian panelling, indian shutters, libraries, mantels, and staircases.
