Handcrafted Woodwork Made to Be Used, Displayed, and Remembered.

One maker. One piece at a time. Every board built to let the grain, the knots, and the color of the wood be the subject — never hidden behind a factory finish.

The Maker

A Las Vegas native who builds with his hands, not a catalog.

Silver State Woodworking is Thomas Striegel — more than ten years spent turning a love of building into a craft. What started as working with his hands became a business rooted in quality, natural material, and the kind of care you can only give one piece at a time.

He builds every piece to order. No two are exactly alike, and that is the whole point.

The Range of Work

Browse the work, not a shelf.

From daily-use cutting boards to one-of-a-kind functional art. Where a real piece exists, it is shown whole — where it doesn't yet, the work is named honestly rather than faked.

Custom Order Process

From your idea to a finished piece.

Request

Tell me the piece you have in mind — what it's for, the size, the wood, any engraving. A rough idea is plenty to start.

Design & Quote

I work out the approach and send a clear, honest quote — no pressure, no surprises. We settle the details together before anything is cut.

Build & Deliver

I hand-build it, finish it, and get it to you — one piece, made only for you, ready to be used and kept.

“I don't build to fill a shelf. I build one piece at a time so the grain, the knots, the color — the character of the wood — is the thing you remember.”
