About our company

Our company is founded by two teenagers from Park Rapids, Minnesota. We graduated from Park Rapids High School and are going to college up in the Fargo-Moorhead area. We are both avid outdoorsmen and love to be outside. We love to work with tools and have a knack and vision for woodworking/construction projects. We strive to not only satisfy our clients, but to carry out the job without skipping corners. We both have our minds set on finishing a job the way it should be done, and not just getting it done.

About Us

My name is Aiden Maanum. I’ve been doing construction and woodworking type work for 5+ years. I’ve been a part of 5 house builds and a bunch of remodeling projects. Pretty much every step of a house building process, I’ve had experience in, except for concrete. All the experience I have obtained comes from my high school shop teacher, who I’ve worked with for 4 years, and my grandpa, who was a carpenter himself. I just love working with my hands and I love to see ideas come to life in the woodworking world. I pride myself in working hard to reach perfection and doing things the right way. I am going to college for construction management, to further my knowledge in the construction field.

My name is Matt Johanning. I’ve been doing construction type work for about 4 years now. Most of my experience is from building houses in shop class along with builidng cabinets and other wood projects. I also work with my high school shop teacher in the summer which has made me a much better carpenter. The way people react and the looks on their faces when they see their wood projects finished is so awesome to see and that is why I love woodworking and carpentry work. I am going to school for Business at MSUM in Moorhead, to learn more about running a business the right way.
