HANDS-ON COLLABORATION FOR TEAM-BUILDING THAT ACTUALLY WORKS

Transform your team through the simple, powerful act of making something together. In just two hours, we'll turn a room of individuals into a unified team with shared memories and handcrafted proof of what they can accomplish together.

LEAVING OTHER TEAM-BUILDING IN THE DUST

No trust falls. No cringe-worthy icebreakers. Just the natural collaboration that happens when people solve problems and create something tangible together.

REAL RESULTS, NOT FORCED FUn

Zero woodworking experience needed. Our expert guides ensure everyone contributes successfully, regardless of role, personality type, or physical ability.

ACCESSIBLE TO EVERYONE

Copy here about leveling the playing field for all team members, when there are usually power dynamics, here there are none. Power dynamics are removed, flipped on their heads, and everyone gets the chance to shine.

LEVEL THE PLAYING FIELD

Teams leave with physical reminders of their collaboration. The cutting boards, trays, and furniture pieces made here become office fixtures that remind everyone what they're capable of together.

LASTING IMPACT

Let's be honest: finding fresh team activities is hard. We make the process effortless while delivering an experience your team will genuinely thank you for.

FROM OUR TEAMS

"I've watched my engineers write code together for years, but I've never seen them connect like they did making something physical. Three months later, that table is still the center of our break room—and our conversations."

— Rachel T., Team Lead at Veterans United

"Worth every penny. The boost in team morale was immediately noticeable, and the projects they created are proudly displayed in our office. The real magic was seeing who stepped up as leaders in a completely different context."

— Marcus J., Department Director, University of Missouri

"As a remote team that only meets quarterly, finding meaningful in-person activities is crucial. This was the perfect balance of fun and productivity. Our new team motto is literally 'measure twice, cut once.'"

— Stephanie L., Regional Sales Manager
