Custom fly tying desks
Jun 26th
Tim Tibbals has been building custom furniture and cabinets since 1981, first learning the trade at a small shop in Redwood City, California. Through the years, he worked at a number of larger shops that produced high-end products for both the commercial and residential markets.
In 1991, Tim branched off on his own, doing much of the same work he had done for others in the previous ten years but now making custom fly tying desks. After taking a fly tying class in 2000, he recognized the need for organization and storage for fly tyers. A simple design was created, and from that evolved a line of furniture that has been highly acclaimed by fly tyers across the country.
Being organized as you tie flies makes you more efficient and allows you to better enjoy your craft. Being organized and tying in the comfort of your favorite room in the house is even better! Discriminate fly tyers around the country have discovered the best of both worlds in their purchase of a desk from Tibbals’ Wood Studio.
Each desk is handcrafted per order from selected woods and is made with the utmost attention to detail. The design is simple yet provides an ample workspace with storage for materials, spools of thread and wire, and all your tools.
Fully assembled at the shop, the desk is “knocked-down” and carefully packaged for shipping. Upon arrival, your desk is easily re-assembled with complete instructions.
The standard wood used is Alder, which is beautifully finished in a “Shaker Cherry” stain. The finish is an environmentally friendly, water-based polyurethane that provides an everlasting, durable finish.
Other woods such as oak, cherry, walnut and hickory are available. Custom stain colors are available as well. You can visit the “FAQ” page for more details.
