Darren Fox has been at the workbench ever since he was old enough to make a mess. As the founder of Woodworxs by Fox LLC, he has spent nearly forty years working with timber—specializing in rustic furniture, custom security builds, and the rugged art of reclaimed lumber. Darren doesn't know everything, and he knows better than to ever claim he does. He doesn't call himself a master craftsman; instead, he looks at his decades in the shop as forty years of learning exactly how to correct mistakes. His philosophy is built entirely on "trial by error," and he writes his manuals to pass down that hard-earned, practical shop wisdom to the next generation of builders. When he isn't covered in sawdust in North Carolina, he connects with fellow makers and shares his work at woodworxsbyfox.com.
