Welcome to Make and Mend

I’ve been making and mending all sorts of things all my life – repairing or repurposing rather than buying new and discarding the broken. This site shows the range of things I've worked on.
If there is something you need making or mending, use the Contact Me page to get in touch.
I look forward to learning about your project.

What I do

I enjoy a challenge and have tools and skills to tackle many types of project, however my preference is for well defined tasks that can be achieved within a week or two. Although I don’t have the depth of skill of the artisans on The Repair Shop, I can complete many types of project and will always be clear on what I can achieve and what you can expect. I’m always happy to offer advice.

To get a feel for the types of project I have recently worked on take a look at my portfolio or take a quick look at the  types of project I typically work on below.

Signs, furniture, toys, tide clocks, boxes, hand tools, machine tools…

Personalised items for that special person or event.

Kitchen ware, furniture, tools, bowls, electrical appliances (battery/low voltage only)

Found something you want a name or event adding to? I can provide both laser engraving and CNC engraving services.

Tools, woodwork, furniture, plastic objects, toys…
