Opifex Ligni Esse - To Build in Wood

General Info
Adam Scudder is a third generation craftsman, born and raised on a small family farm in the Catskill Mountains of upstate New York. After taking a Fine Woodwork course at the North Bennet Street School of Boston he went through SUNY Delhis Cabinetry program. Adam worked with a company building and installing custom cabinetry in Manhattan before he went to The Center for Furniture Craftsmanship in Maine for an intensive furniture making program. Adam completed the Delhi Carpentry program then spent a couple years in Huntington on Long Island, working in high end cabinet shops. Adam now works out of his own studio furniture shop upstate where hes known to build anything, so long as its wood. I like to build; to make something fine from rough parts, if its a house of studs or a chair of tapered and bent laminations. Adam likes that custom work can require innovative solutions and nontraditional materials to meet design criteria. Adams signature furniture can be described as a blend of Shaker and Arts and Crafts with an Asian influence.

Adam did a wonderful job refinishing my kitchen floor. He covered everything in plastic and blocked off the kitchen, so my house was not covered in sawdust. He came when promised, worked diligently and the quality of the work was impeccable. We are beyond satisfied with the job. His prices were very reasonable and his work ethic exemplary. The floor looks great!!!

A true craftsman. Adam is knowledgeable, artistic and a credit to his profession. He has done some antique furniture repairs for me and remodeling consultation. I'm looking forward to a floor refinish that he will be doing in my kitchen in the near future.

Adam is very professional. He obviously is very experienced with his trade as shown through his work. Above all, he truly impressed me with his respectful attitude while working in my home. Whether it be a small job or a large job he's no doubt the man for it. I look forward to inviting him back to finish the rest of my house next fall.

Adams professionalism and abilities are top notch, his ability to not only do the job required but also explain what and why he is doing it really made me feel comfortable. I had a unique piece of wooden art I was working on but my own ability and knowledge were matched, Adam to the rescue!!! With his quality of work I have seen and recommendations from friends he was the only person I trusted with this one of a kind project. With out fail he made my request an easy process, the quality was above what I was asking and well with in my time limit. Also he informed me of several things which will surely help in my project, thank you!!

I had Adam refinish my dining room hardwood, after I had ripped up all of the carpeting. It started off as a giant, green, adhesive and carpet padding residue covered eye sore. After one day it was transformed into a sleek looking finished floor. Adam (and crew) arrived right on time, and after taking a look at the floors, got right down to business. He described the entire process as he went along, keeping me updated as well as answering all of my questions. They were polite, professional, and did one hell of a job. We couldn't be happier. If you need woodworking services, look no further.

Adam is a gem among wood workers, a step above the rest! We had our hard wood floors re done and they have never looked better. If you want it done right, it's got to be Adam scudder!

The combination of service, price and craftsmanship are 5+ stars!



Adam is completely devoted to his craft and takes tremendous pride in his work. He created a stunning, all walnut daybed/couch for me. Wonderful customer communication– kept me up to date of the progress which included photos of the project at each step of the way. I felt like I was right in his workshop from the moment he meticulously selected each piece of wood that would be used. As we started the design process, he was flexible and valued my input - working hard to understand the concept I had in mind. In the end, his creativity and expertise brought my vision to life. I was so pleased with the final result and would highly recommend him without reservation.
