At Wild Edge Woodcraft, we understand your desire to create stronger ties with your family, your friends, your community, and nature. We believe that handmade hardwood furniture crafted from sustainably-harvested local trees has the power to inspire fellowship and joy. We create one-of-a-kind furniture that tells a story and celebrates the unique style of every person we work with. Natural beauty enriches the human experience, which is why we devote months (and sometimes years) to crafting extraordinary art that people appreciate and talk about for years. Connect with your friends and family around a naturally beautiful and distinctive table or kitchen island made just for you. Our journey started with a passion for family, self-reliance, sustainable farming, and woodcraft. The joy we get seeing our customers beaming with pride and happiness is priceless! Furniture shouldn't be flimsy, common, or lackluster in your home. It should be a source of joy, art, beauty, expression, and a testament to form and function that brings people together and starts conversations. Contact me and together we can bring your vision to life to create heirloom furniture that will tell a story for generations to come.

"Avery has a great operation and everything went great! Cool planer and sawmill. The kilns are absolutely high tech. I live in snow camp and it was worth th drive."

"This project originally began only as painting the inside of the house. Ashley and Josh came in and found so many things that needed to be fixed that would impede the sell of the house. They always notified me of the issues as they came up, but they did not pressure me into hiring them to fix anything. I really appreciated that and it is one of the things that made me decide to hire them for the entire renovation once I decided to do it. Ashley also presented a detailed, itemized invoice with every project. If there was something she knew she already had at home, such as hardware for the doors or lighting, she made sure to ask if I wanted to use that first before purchasing anything. They are very generous with their time and materials. Ashley was also honest when it came to ideas I might have about different areas and if they were worth fixing monetarily. They did not just agree to do whatever I wanted, she told me if it would be in my best interest or not to fix or leave certain things. They are extremely trustworthy and efficient. I could not recommend them enough!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

The cost to convert a carport into a garage averages about $22,000, ranging from about $15,000 and $55,000. Additional cost factors to consider include size, time of year, and how much of the carport you can reuse. Other cost factors include the kinds and amounts of materials used, such as:

  • Add insulation: $1 per square foot

  • Add drywall: $1–$3 per square foot

  • Add window: $450–$2,000 per window

  • Add outlets: $75–$500

  • Add garage door: $250–$11,200

  • Enclose framing: $5–$13 per square foot

  • Replace roofing: $1,000–$2,000

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects. 

Yes, building a screened-in porch on an existing deck is absolutely an option, although there are many factors to consider when adding a screened-in porch to a deck. You or the general contractor you hire will need to add a frame to a deck without a previous screen to keep it safe from damage. You’ll also want to work together to make sure your new porch matches your existing home style.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.
