My name is Ralph Rumery, and my home and home shop are located in Beverly, Massachusetts, about 20 miles north of Boston and on the Northshore of Massachusetts Bay.

I am a Mechanical Engineer by training, and after a third of a century in the Machine Design and Integration field I have chosen to spend more time pursuing the woodworking that had only been an avocation for all those years.

My interest in woodworking developed an as a youngster while helping my Dad build cabinets and furniture items for the home. Since that time I have maintained a home shop and continued to stock it with hand and power tools in preparation for that Retirement Day when the rarest of all commodities, TIME, would be abundant.

In addition to my woodworking, and to enhance and augment that woodwork, I have added a CO2 LASER engraver to my inventory of tools. This LASER allows me to custom engrave text or images to a variety of materials such as Slate, Cork, Leather, Mat Board, Acrylic, and of course my many species of wood. This LASER also gives me the capability to cut many organic materials for cutting profiles, cutting silhouette shapes, and perforating materials up to a quarter of an inch thick.

My present concentration is making gift items. However, I am always open to your custom order requests and new ideas.

You may also check out the section on Events, Venues and Links, where you will find information on my shop activities and experiences, new products, and information on any upcoming Show and Fair appearances.

Thank you for your interest in RUMERYWOODS.
