Max Baldwin sorting. Ryan Baldwin . . . . . .

No two piece of wood are exactly the same. Each has unique character. Owner Max Baldwin sorts every board and decides where it will look best. He likes to take care of this himself so that he knows the Baldwin level of quality is as high as possible.  The "blanks" go into the appropriate pile and move along to the cutting area.

In the cutting area Ryan Baldwin AKA "eagle eyes" inspects, trims, cuts and if need be traces patterns on the blanks. He is also the chief bandsawer, but we don't use the bandsaw much anymore...
