A sign I sent to Ryan Sickler's studio
I cut a WayBack sign for comedian Ryan Sickler and sent it to his studio as a gift. Nobody paid for it and there is no sponsorship or partnership here. He hung it up and posted it, which was a good day for a small Arkansas shop.
"This is fire! Thank you @martins_woodwork! It's a great addition to the studio."

You're buying from the person who cuts it
I'm Dylan. I run a small shop in Hot Springs, Arkansas, and I make every piece myself with a jigsaw and a bandsaw. No CNC, no laser engraver, nothing mass produced.
You see the layout first
I draw your design on paper and send you a photo of it, with a firm price, before any wood gets cut.
Cut with a jigsaw and bandsaw
Every shape and letter is cut by hand with a jigsaw or bandsaw.
Made for you, not pulled off a shelf
Your name, your colors, your size. Every piece is made individually for the person who ordered it.
Real wood, finished by brush
Birch ply, pine and cedar, sanded smooth and painted or stained. Made for indoor or covered spots.
One thing worth knowing: these pieces are made for indoors, or an outdoor spot that stays fully covered. They are not finished to sit out in the weather.
Flagship project
Golf Across USA
A wooden map of the country with a recessed pocket for each state, sized to hold a real golf ball. Play a round in a new state, keep the ball, press it in. Layered birch plywood in a solid stained frame.
