They create pieces based on their designs and take custom orders from commercial and residential customers.

Located at 1227 N. Broadway, Suite B, the business mills salvaged trees from local sources and kiln dries the boards in it’s shop to ensure quality. Digital, 3D models are prepared for clients to show them how their product will look when complete.

“We rescue trees at the City of New Ulm waste disposal site,” Harold said.

Harold’s products include cube-shaped wood creations, barn beam coffee tables, reclaimed wood console tables, floating slab console tables, mid-century modern night stands, black walnut dining tables with molten aluminum inlays, honey Lucust with black epoxy dining tables, modern desks, red cedar console tables, and reclaimed barn wood benches.
