Services
We design and build custom furniture using a variety of woodworking techniques and wood species. That design is then modified in consultation with you to arrive at the finished design of the furniture. If you are interested in having a piece of furniture designed and hand made, please contact us. As a custom woodworking shop, we receive a wide range or requests.
Bring the family, friends or coworkers and enjoy a two to three hour hands-on woodworking experience. Upon arrival at the wood studio, we'll give you a tour of the work area and let you decide what wood you would like to like to turn a beautiful pen. We'll teach you how to use the lathe to create some magic, turning a square block of wood into a beautiful craft.
Charlottetown, the capital of Prince Edward Island, is the seat of Confederation for Canada. As such, there is a large collection of historic properties and stately homes. We are proud to do the furniture restoration work for many of the museums and historic properties on PEI. We build reproduction furniture to meet the needs of these buildings in their modern every day contexts.

We took six sturdy kitchen chairs to McAskills that were painted black to be stripped, stained and finished. They tested an arm and a leg so that we knew what they could look like and loved the sample. The price was by no means cheap but the finished product blew us away. The McAskill workshop also has a beautiful retail space filled with local artisanal products including woodworks and pottery.
