It all started on the bench
A natural-born tinkerer, Micah has been working with reclaimed wood since high school well before Steamboat Mercantile was born. As he was getting started in the woodworking world, he reconfigured an old waterbed into a matching headboard and footboard. Complete with shelves and built sturdy enough that they are in use today, he was proud of the project and absolutely hooked.
Since then, he has developed custom built-ins, tables and benches for friends and family, and created many imaginative gifts out of scrap lumber and barrel staves for lucky recipients. Each piece he creates is unique, built with material and style that carries a story to its new home.
You can find Micah and his wife Jenny at the Steamboat Farmers Market during the summer of 2025. See Micah’s work in person, learn more about the found materials he uses, and take a new treasure home with you.
