Nighthawk Woodcraft

Handcrafted river tables and custom wood furniture, made in Madison, Wisconsin.

I build one-of-a-kind dining tables, coffee tables, benches, and custom pieces using solid hardwoods and epoxy river designs. Every piece is made to order and finished by hand in my Madison workshop.

Typical lead time: about one month. Delivery available within roughly a day’s drive of Madison.

Tables

My tables are designed to be used every day. Each piece is built to order, with flexibility in size, materials, and finish to suit your space.

Dining Tables

Solid hardwood dining tables designed for daily use and long-term durability. Sizes, edge profiles, and river designs can be customized to fit your room and style.

Coffee Tables

Coffee tables built from the same materials and techniques as my larger pieces, scaled for living spaces. Available with or without river epoxy designs.

Benches

Matching or standalone benches built to complement dining tables or entry spaces. Dimensions and finishes can be tailored to your needs.

Custom Pieces

Looking for something outside these categories? I regularly build custom furniture and one-off pieces. If you have an idea, I’m happy to discuss it.

Customization

Every table is built to order. Clients can customize materials, finishes, and design details to create a piece that fits both their space and their taste.

Wood Selection

I work primarily with solid hardwood slabs, including locally sourced species when available. Natural grain, knots, and live edges are preserved whenever possible.

River Epoxy

River tables feature epoxy fills between slabs of wood. Clients can choose:

  • Epoxy color
  • Level of transparency (clear, tinted, or solid)
  • River width and shape

Finish Options

Each piece is finished by hand for durability and longevity. Finish options can be tailored based on use and appearance preferences, including matte, satin, or gloss.

Overlay and Cutout Options

Optional overlays or cutout details can be incorporated into the design for added visual interest or functional elements.

About

Nighthawk Woodcraft focuses on building functional furniture with an emphasis on material quality and thoughtful design. Each piece is built start to finish in my Madison workshop, with attention to joinery, finish, and long-term durability.

My goal is simple: create furniture that will be used, appreciated, and passed down.
