Welcome to Black Swamp Windsors! I am a Lutheran pastor and a life long woodworker. In my free time I make things out of wood, especially Scandinavian woodcarvings, 17th Century style carved boxes, and authentic handmade wooden chairs in the Shaker and Windsor tradition. My wife, Barb, is a teacher and also a woodworker and she makes beautiful pens on her lathe. Our website got part of its name, Black Swamp.

Re-using, recycling, and redeeming old wood. 108 Year of the Rooster. Okay, so 2018 is Year of the Dog. But all good intentions meant there should have been a rooster carving last year. It was completed, in fact, several were done. So, belated happy Year of the Rooster. Remembering the theme of using whatever we can save or salvage, this rooster was made from a scrap of cutoff for a larger project. That required some adjustments to the feet and tail.
