Tom started working with wood 15 years ago, and his wife Mary enjoyed detailing the projects that he made. So once Tom retired in 2013, “Freidlys’ Woodcrafts” went from being a fun idea to a reality. As a very small company, we began by doing projects for friends and relatives, and we relied completely on word-of-mouth within our small community to advertise our business. Although Mary still works outside the home, she details projects whenever she can. In August 2015 we were very excited as our first online store launched.
