This video is an excerpt from the two full days of presentations at Fine Woodworking New England this past April.
Owen Madden is a professional cabinetmaker from upstate New York who works as shop foreman at Rowan Woodwork. His past work ranges from historical preservation and replication to modern architectural millwork. He presents at KBIS (Kitchen and Bath Industry Show) on the topic of Custom Cabinetry: Trends and Techniques from Inside the Woodshop, giving designers an inside look at what the builders do. Owen’s interest in woodworking sparked early, when he was exposed to his great-grandfather’s work building wooden boats, some of which are still in the family. Owen enjoys the community aspect of woodworking, trading stories and techniques about the craft with mentors, peers, and beginners alike. When he’s not in the shop he loves to spend time with his wife Megan and little dog Otis. His ATFTOAT (all-time favorite tool of all time) is the OLFA 25mm breakaway utility knife.
