I’m Tim Rodriguez, owner of Sawdust & Steel. I’m a Pediatric Oncology Nurse by night and a passionate woodworker by day. I’ve been honing my craft since my woodshop class in junior high, and what started as a hobby has turned into a business driven by my love for creating custom, finely crafted furniture.
My philosophy is simple: I believe in creating more than just furniture. I believe in building pieces that tell a story, last a lifetime, and serve as a reflection of both the craftsmanship and care that go into every detail. As a nurse, I’ve spent years learning the importance of precision, patience, and the kind of dedication that goes beyond the ordinary. I apply those same values to every project I take on – from the first sketch to the final finish.
I specialize in custom builds, with a focus on quality, functionality, and making sure every piece meets my exacting standards. I take pride in my attention to detail and strive for perfection in everything I do. Whether you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind dining table, a hand-crafted bookshelf, or a completely unique design, I work closely with every client to bring their vision to life. Your satisfaction isn’t just a goal – it’s a commitment.
Thank you for considering Sawdust & Steel – I look forward to creating something truly special for you.
