Our Story: Crafted with Heart & Respect for the Bush
We love wood. The way it tells a story, the way it shapes under our hands, and the magic of turning raw logs into things of lasting beauty. If you need milling timber for your next build, crafting solid Australian hardwood furniture, or giving fallen trees a second life, we’re here to make it happen.
With our portable mills, we can come to you wherever you are in Victoria, or bring your logs to us. From farmers and First Nations custodians to Landcare groups and councils, we work with those who care for the land as much as we do. Every tree has a history, and when we’re lucky enough to work with one, we honour its journey by shaping it into something meaningful.
Got a log that needs milling? A vision for a custom piece? Or just want to chat timber? Give us a call or drop us a message. We’d love to hear from you.
Let’s create something beautiful, together.
