About

I'm Tom — known online as Tallwoodmaker. Woodworking is both my work and the content I share. The camera's been in the shop since the first cut.

Tom, TallWoodMaker, holding a saw blade in the workshop

I got into woodworking by fixing an old shelf that was headed for the dump. The first piece came out crooked, the second was better, and the third ended up online. From there it grew into daily shop work.

The content I make isn't just a highlight reel. I show the measurements that didn't work, the tools that deserve more attention, and the calls made right at the saw.

Process

From design to finish — every step documented, including the mistakes.

Tools

A mix of hand tools and machines. I explain what and why.
