However, woodworking is in his blood. At a very early age, Jim learned the art of craftsmanship from his father. He continues to work in his workshop, producing custom products like: frames, furniture, home accessories and cabinetry. He also takes on refurbishing projects, from revamping shambled furniture to making a simple fix.
