Smoke & Hammer Workshop

This is our creative play space — a spot to swap ideas, share how-to’s, and get inspired to build things that are both functional and beautiful.

I’m Mike — dad of 7 and a designer who’s done work with brands like Nike, DKNY, Estee Lauder, and Audible. These days, my favorite projects are the ones I make at home with my kids — grill tables, Lego animation setups, backyard classrooms, and more.

Here you’ll find:
[ul][li]Plans + projects \(step-by-step, no headaches\)[li]Practical tips to make design meet real life[li]Support + inspiration from other makers and DIY dads[li]Weekly “Coffee & Builds” hangouts for ideas, Q&A, and community

The goal: Create, learn, experiment, and build things you’re proud of.
