Let’s Build
Follow along as we explore the world of woodworking. We’ll learn about custom furniture, butcher blocks, restorations, country crafts, and more.
Who Are We?
ES&S Woodworking is a family of makers. We love to build, to construct, to create. We are lead by our chocolate lab shop manager, Benson, who demands delicious snacks and our best scrap wood as payment. We don’t have a brick and mortar building for you to visit (yet!) and we are currently not taking any more custom orders. We have been extremely fortunate to have a large number of orders that filled our schedule for months to come. Please feel free to reach out with questions and we are happy to make recommendations for friendly woodshops we work closely with.
What’s New In The Woodshop?
Stay on top of our current projects and learn a little about the process of furniture making, restoration, crafting, and our various tools and equipment. You’ll find out that our woodshop runs on family, root beer, and the idea that most things are “too good not to be better”. Let’s build something together.
Box Elder Style
Box Elder is a gorgeous wood that is a favorite of ours to turn on the lathe. The final product is rich in color with a beautiful grain pattern that is full of character. It's often identified by the hints of red and pink that appear throughout. We turned this handle...
Snow In The Forecast?
While we might not be ready for the fluffy white stuff this year's penguin sure is! We will have him and his friends at the Leesport Christmas Craft Show on Thanksgiving weekend!
Pepper Grinder Art
Cherry and Maple make for a great glue up on this pepper grinder. The combination of grain patterns and color will complement every kitchen. Why settle for store-bought plastic when you can own a grinder that can be a conversation starter.
Spread A Little Joy
Spread a little holiday Joy this year with our adorable new country craft. We will have these available at the Leesport Christmas Show on Thanksgiving weekend but if you'd like to reserve yours now just send us a message through our website or Facebook!
Holiday Stocking
What would compliment any stocking this holiday season? Maybe something hand made! We have a large selection of wood turned items in stock for the holiday season. This pizza cutter with removable stainless steel cutting head is a great example. No need to worry about...
Gingerbread Time
This year's gingerbread figure is cranky for a whole new reason! Thankfully he comes with a decorative crutch to help him get around. Pick him up at the Leesport Christmas Craft Show on Thanksgiving Weekend (Nov 30/Dec 1). Stay tuned to see the rest of the 2019 winter...
Hand Made Items From Our Shop
We build because we enjoy the process of building. Creating something beautiful from raw materials is what wakes us up each day. Some people need coffee, but there is something to be said for the smell of sawdust in the morning.
100% Kiln Dried Wood
Your final product is too important to risk using inferior wood products. That is why ES&S Woodworking only uses kiln-dried woods in our furniture and specialty projects. The kiln drying process reduces the chance of wood movement which can cause failures.
Restoration and Resto-Mod
Whether it’s bringing a family heirloom back to life or turning a flea market find into the perfect accent piece, ES&S Woodworking is excited to get started. Contact us today so we can talk about turning your vision into a reality.
From Our Stock Room
Sometimes we feel inspired to create something with no customer in mind. When that happens the piece will often end up in our stock room until we can find it a forever home. Be sure to check back as we add to this collection often.
Mirror In Old Violet - $79
This mirror was rescued from an auction before coming to our shop for some TLC. The wood was prepared for paint and covered in Annie Sloan Old Violet before receiving some light distressing and a clear coat. This old mirror is well built and very heavy.
Small Bench - $90
The top is made from solid maple and walnut. The base and legs are made from red oak and rubbed with dark walnut stain. That was then coated with Jacobean stain to give is a dark and rich color. The whole piece received a final clear coat to help it last for decades.
Maple Toy Chest - $260
Available in maple, cherry, pine, walnut, and hickory. The price listed is for unfinished maple and will be adjusted based on wood species chosen. We can apply stain if desired and a clear coat is also an option. Every chest includes soft-close hinges to keep fingers from being hurt when the lid closes.
