Welcome!

    Welcome to the home page of Jess Porrey Custom Woodworking. We strive to produce only the finest hand made custom furniture using traditional techniques and hand tools to give your piece a custom look that will last generations.

    Using only the highest grade materials, we let the beauty and strength of solid wood come first. From design to construction to finish. All of our furniture features hand cut joinery for the finest results. For strength and beauty we use pinned mortise and tenons and hand-cut dovetails. These techniques take more time, but the results make the effort well worth it.

Why Custom Furniture?

    When looking for the right piece of furniture, we often settle for less. Lower quality, wrong size, not the right look or style. These factors may cause you to go through several pieces to find what is right. With custom furniture, 'Just Right' is all you recieve. Your ideas and designs will be realized, giving you satisfaction from a piece built just for you!

What is Handmade Furniture?

    Modern technology in woodworking has made the days of hand sawing/planing rough timber to size a thing of the past. Hours no longer have to be spent in this exhaustive pursuit. But where machines do come into play, custom 'handmade furniture' uses hand tools and techniques to give your furniture the same quality and duribility that made the cabinetmakers of the past and thier furniture so valuable. Handmade furniture today usually refers to a one-man shop, using power and hand tools to build your furniture for you, one piece at a time.
