HELLO!

As a kid, I enjoyed tinkering with scrap wood and nails. I’d make ramps for my RC truck or little garden boxes for my mom. I’d make small car models or build with my Erector Set. I’d build large objects from my K’nex or design and build Lincoln Log and Hotwheels cities that took up an entire living room floor. I think I’ve always had a penchant for design and building. It just took me a while to get to where I am.

I took the long, winding route to becoming a cabinet and furniture maker. I gained “life” experience through a college degree (chemistry), two graduate degrees (organic chemistry, chemistry education), and 6 years secondary teaching (chemistry, web design). While in graduate school at Indiana University, I discovered a joy for teaching and building. I made friends along the way that introduced me to Habitat for Humanity. That’s where my “real” building experience began. In 2013 I moved to Portage, MI and soon met my wife. In 2015 I started DSM Woodwork out of our 1-car garage.

2018 was a challenging year that saw us step out in faith and move into woodworking full-time. Now, almost 7 years after starting, we are building custom cabinetry and gathering tables in a 2700+ sq ft shop near downtown Kalamazoo. We are making sure our work, processes, and products are built unto the Lord. And, we really enjoy what we do. We are blessed beyond measure.

Over the last 6.5 years, we have taken on a variety of “woodworking” projects including trim and finish carpentry, remodels, small woodworking projects, and large woodworking projects. We have made the decision over the last few months to solely focus on custom cabinetry, built-ins, gathering tables, desks, and cutting/charcuterie boards. If your project falls within this scope, we’d love to chat more with you. The majority of our business and inquiries fall into these categories and these are the things we truly enjoy dreaming, designing, and building. If you’re not sure, contact us anyway.

Blessings,
Dan Meyers | President, DSM Woodwork
