We work in the world's best hardwoods

Australian character timbers, American hardwood classics, and vibrant exotics for feature trims — chosen for density, grain and a story worth keeping.

Australian

  • Tasmanian Blackwood — golden-brown with rich figure; dense, durable, beautiful.
  • Reclaimed Redgum — rescued, deep-red and characterful; every board one of a kind.
  • Australian Oak — pale, tight grain; the bright, clean everyday workhorse.
  • Acacia — warm honey tones and flowing grain; a hardwearing all-rounder.

American

  • Hard Maple — pale, fine and famously hard; the classic butcher-block timber.
  • American Walnut — deep chocolate tones; the showpiece for serving and gifting.
  • American Cherry — warm reddish-brown that deepens with age.

Feature trims — a CustomCraft signature

Vibrant exotics inlaid as accent strips — something no one else offers.

  • Purpleheart — an unmistakable deep violet.
  • Padauk — fiery orange-red.
  • Osage Orange — bright golden-yellow.
  • Tigerwood — dramatic dark-striped grain.
The maker at the bench in the Goulburn workshop

One workshop. Every board, by hand.

We cut on a CNC for millimetre precision, then finish every piece by hand — sanded, oiled with a food-safe finish, and checked before it leaves the bench in Goulburn, in the Southern Highlands of NSW.

Because we make to order, you get the exact size, timber and engraving you want — and a board built to outlast its first owner. That's why every piece carries our lifetime craftsmanship guarantee.
