The Makerman

An artisan maker working with hardwoods and resin to create artworks, home wares and jewelry.

Andy Firth is The Makerman, who creates wood and resin crafts from his home based workshop in Darlington, Co. Durham. A life long woodworker, Andy searches sawmills and hardwood suppliers for the woods he uses in his designs. A few years ago Andy started using resins to complement his crafts and has been using the two materials together since. Andy makes small items of furniture both bespoke to client requirements or designed to his own tastes. He also creates home wares such as hardwood and resin lazy Susan serving boards, hardwood and resin cheeseboards, free standing and wall hanging artworks, and smaller resin gifts containing flowers, seeds, coloured inks and semi precious stones.
