Description
In the 1800s and early 1900s, carpenters and wood workers were in demand for the construction of counters, display cases, and furniture repair as well as new buildings. The carpenter work shop was often located next to a large lumber yard.
Often a carpenter was also a cabinet maker, in which case he made furniture – bedsteads, wash stands, tables, chairs, cupboards, pie racks and trim. Central in this image is a treadle lathe…surrounded by other tools of the trade.
The wood worker with a streak of artisan in his blood would slowly and meticulously create ornate trim and character carvings. The tools were many and the work often tedious.

I am a photographer and visual artist, enjoying the freedom that comes with doing something that I love for a living. Several times a year I leave the studio behind, load the equipment and head out on the open road…camera in hand and photos in mind. Please enjoy browsing my various galleries of photography and digital art. If you happen to find something that calls to you, then I will have achieved success.
