Seth Bond: Co-Owner

Seth Bond has been a metal worker and artist all his life, first learning the trade from his father, a professional industrial welder, mechanic, and metal artist. That foundation grew into experience that spans not only metal fabrication, but all phases of home construction and remodeling, with a strong, practical understanding of how structures are built, repaired, and improved from the ground up.

In addition to his work in construction and fabrication, Seth is an experienced wildland firefighter and professional sawyer in his day job. In this work, precision, safety, and problem-solving under pressure are essential. That background informs his approach to every project—careful planning, efficient execution, and respect for people and landscape.

During his time at Antioch College in Yellow Springs, Ohio, Seth honed his artistic skills while earning Bachelor’s Degrees in Found Object Sculpture and Environmental Science. This uncommon combination of disciplines shapes his work today.

Seth’s artistic and construction work often incorporates new and reclaimed metal, wood, and found materials, resulting in pieces and projects that are both practical and distinctive. Whether bringing a client’s idea to life or creating something entirely original, his work is designed to be used, lived with, and relied upon—becoming a lasting part of a home, cabin, property, or business.
