Offerman Woodshop

The past few weeks I've been trying really hard to find a wood shop that I can start putting together some projects in. All of the public spaces (only have found two in San Francisco so far) are sort of expensive to work in, and the private ones, well, are private (goal now is to find an apprenticeship in one of them). But, I have found a lot of cool things in my searches, one of them being Nick Offerman's woodshop.


Nick Offerman most famously plays Ron Swanson on the TV Series Parks and Recreation...an all time favorite character of mine. I knew that he actually did woodworking, but had yet to see his work. Offermanwoodshop.com displays some of Nick's and his co-shopworker's projects and I decided to make a post displaying my favorites (my favorite being the dining table above).

A walnut breakfast table. I love the dovetails binding the crack.


A walnut sideboard that I want. I wish there were more places in a small house to keep sideboards!

And the shop offers slabs, handpicked by Nick.
