A little about myself...
|
My name is Tim Hornshaw and my wife and I live in Holland, Michigan with our two sons.
Background:
After fifteen years of design engineering for Aerospace and Automotive companies, I have decided to return to my first love, woodworking. But not to lose the experience I have gained from my previous career, I plan on relying heavily on CAD and CNC to produce my products.
Mission:
My mission is to produce Low cost, High quality products and market them directly to my customers. I'm using my experience in design engineering coupled with the latest woodworking technologies to produce world class wood products.
Hornshaw Wood Works and the Environment
I have a deep respect for and love of nature. I create items that capture and display the rare beauty of natural wood and appreciate that wood comes from trees that take many years to grow to maturity. Only through proper conservation management can we ensure that there will always be enough trees to supply our needs, cleanse our air and provide shelter to the planets abundant wildlife.
Therefore, I avoid lumber suppliers who support or promote clear cutting, and favor suppliers who promote conservation management, replanting, and hardwood plantations. I do not use any woods known to be endangered or protected.
Planet Earth is a community of organisms, of which Mankind is only one, all of which are dependent upon one another. We must treat the planets living things with respect or we will surely be killing ourselves.
