The American Arts and crafts movement is alive and well at Bluestone. We have purchased a Wood-Mizer portable band saw for milling our own local wood and are building a business to provide high end building materials, hand made furniture and much more from this powerful tool.

Let us know if we can help you with your next woodworking project or if you want to collaborate with us to build out the business.
