Custom Woodwork Creations

I’ve always been drawn to the feel, look, and smell of wood! Seven years ago, my wife Kathryn and I moved to the charming town of Stoughton, Wisconsin, when I retired. After 45+ years as a Marine and a Design Engineer, retirement has given me the chance to channel my creativity into woodworking, a true passion of mine. Nearly all my projects are crafted from reclaimed, repurposed, or reimagined lumber, ranging from large-scale builds to intricate fine woodworking—and everything in between! - John Basco

Every piece I create is one-of-a-kind. Each element is cut, sanded, stained, and painted by hand. I embrace the knots, cracks, and imperfections in the wood, using them to highlight its beauty and uniqueness. Whether it’s your design or mine, from charcuterie boards to business signs, everything is crafted with care. Collaborative and personal design is always an exciting journey!

I'll admit, I'm not the best businessman. If I could, I'd give away everything I create! That's probably why I've steered clear of running an online business. What I lack in business skills, I make up for with a passion for crafting things that people can appreciate and enjoy. That said, I understand the need to start charging so I can continue supporting local businesses and non-profits with whatever they need. I promise my pricing will always be fair and transparent, tailored to fit your budget. Your support will go directly back into our community! Semper Fi!
