Position
Junior Craftsman

Thomas completed his apprenticeship at Schmidt's workshop three years ago and was invited to stay on as a junior craftsman. He comes from a family of carpenters but is the first to specialize in fine furniture making. Thomas is particularly interested in blending traditional techniques with contemporary designs, bringing a fresh perspective to the workshop.

Experience: 7 years of experience including apprenticeship (4/10)

Favorite Jobs

I respect our traditions deeply, but I also believe we must innovate to keep the craft relevant. My goal is to create pieces that honor traditional joinery while speaking to contemporary aesthetics and needs.

Physical Condition

In excellent physical condition and strength from regular gym training. Today he's completely healthy and energetic, moving efficiently around the workshop with seemingly boundless stamina.

Favorite Place

Thomas's favorite place is the finishing room where projects transition from raw construction to completed pieces. He appreciates the controlled environment where dust is minimized and the true beauty of the wood emerges under carefully applied finishes. The room has excellent ventilation and specialized lighting that reveals every detail of surface preparation. He finds satisfaction in watching projects transform in this space, and enjoys the meditative quality of applying oils and waxes with careful, rhythmic movements.
