E.B. Woodcraft

E.B. Woodcraft E.B. Woodcraft is a small one-man woodworking business that specializes in producing custom projects Years later, my focus with E.B. At this point E.B.

Woodcraft is a small one-person (and occasionally one-spouse) business located in Southern Oregon which specializes in producing artistically designed kitchen accessories, custom engraved signage, as well as premium quality custom pieces ranging from picture frames to bookcases and beyond. My name is Eric Brokowski, and I am the owner, operator, designer, maker, content curator, and marketer of E.

B. Woodcraft (which is exactly why some of these areas aren't even remotely close to perfect). When I began woodworking as a hobby in 2015, my goal was simply to be able to cut a straight line without leaving a finger on the shop floor. I immediately fell in love with the smell of sawdust and finish, as well as the rush of excitement I get from finishing a project that a friend or friend-to-be will appreciate forever. Woodcraft is to produce premium-quality wood products with a clear focus on the functional and aesthetic value they bring to people’s lives (also without leaving fingers on the shop floor). The pieces that I make are designed to be attractive enough to display in any home or business, and built to be durable enough to withstand everyday use for a lifetime of enjoyment. While woodworking started out as just another hobby to me, I have since cultivated it into a passion that I simply am unable to picture a life without. It brings me limitless joy when I hear from past clients that my work has brought value to their lives. Woodcraft is still a side business in addition to my primary job, which is in a family-owned plastic injection molding machine shop. As if these two things together weren't enough to fill my days, I am also a father of two amazing, beautiful children, husband to a stunning business owning supermom, and somewhat of a homesteader on 5 acres of property in rural Eagle Point, Oregon. While the things above occupy the vast majority of my time, when I can squeeze out a few extra minutes I am either reading books of all kinds or making music in my home studio, which I like to think the neighbors enjoy hearing (they haven't said otherwise, anyway). Want to talk books, music, woodworking, hiking, biking, business, life, or whatever? Reach out and say hi, I’d love to chat!

Rule number one when asking me to make something: Do NOT say the words "No Rush" under any circumstances.

This client, hereafter referred to as "Texas", is an incredibly patient person. He said "no rush" and, through the 85 back-and-forth emails between us, stood by those words and never once rushed me through this piece despite it taking eleven months to make and ship (averaging approximately 45 minutes of work per month, 15 of which was just me remembering where I left off). Last year was really a bit bumpy for me, and Texas never once pressured me to finish his piece any faster. Be like Texas.

Building this piece came with some breaks from my comfort zone. I don't usually do stained or painted pieces, I had never done flocking before (nor will I again), and shipping finished pieces is quite unfamiliar to me. All things considered, it could have gone a lot worse.

Texas is a really cool guy, and I'm glad we crossed digital paths. I've recently gotten into trading cards as a hobby after a 25-ish year hiatus, and it was nice getting to chat a bit with someone who actually works in the TCG industry. The last two pictures are of the mounted display case with his collection organized all pretty-like.

So, I completed these on January 3rd, which means I have officially finished the first project of 2026. However, I STARTED these in November, so, by that logic, my last project of 2025 was... a gaggle of spatulas in November. I think I'm okay with that.

These altar boxes are made from Ash, a pretty neat wood that apparently irritates my nostrils something fierce (but manageable). These will likely be the last boxes of this design for at least a while, as we're revamping and streamlining the design a bit before proceeding. These were quite a learning experience, and I'm happy to have been able to do five orders of them, almost 100 boxes.

2025 was a doozy. Some good, some bad: a traumatic family experience, crossing into 20 years together with the Ashley (not quite as traumatic as previous item), learning to set and keep boundaries (both with others as well as myself), revisiting childhood interests and making new friends (MTG!), an abysmal reading year (14 books 😓), one of the worst and one of the best camping trips of my life within two weeks of each other, and what may be the best concert I'll ever attend (after a 4-year hiatus from concerts due to anxiety). Not to mention all of the crazy things going on in our country and the world, finding motivation to post regularly and even produce things in the shop has been difficult. (This may sound like an "I'm quitting" post, but it's not). I would say I'm going to try to post projects more often, but let's be real, I'm probably not. I'm hoping to do more time lapse videos on the lathe (which I haven't touched since May), we'll see how that goes.

In celebration of 20 years (plus one month, now) with my beautiful swamp demon, here is the latest offering of out of context Ashley quotes:

"I bet that tastes better than spiders."

"What would you do if I just started violently sh****ng?"

"I can't see, my eyes are naked and full of tears!"

"Twenty years being with this lady, and she's still stupid." (I did not say this, she did)

"Let me at least find out if the cow is okay!"

"Broth is just meat tea."

AND a bonus quote from Logan:

"I'm going to stock lots of milk in my store so kids can see their dads again!"
