About us
Two web developers who also work with their hands.
We're Steph and Jack. We spent our careers building websites for big companies, then moved to the Macedon Ranges to do the same work for local businesses. When we're not at a keyboard, we're in the workshop.

Web developer and woodworker
Steph
Steph has spent twenty-odd years building websites, most of them for big companies with big budgets. She looks after design, words and making sure your site is easy to use.
Away from the screen she's a woodworker, making furniture and joinery in her shed. She knows what it takes to quote a job, chase a deposit and spend a Saturday sanding.

Web developer and blacksmith
Jack
Jack has been writing code for just as long. He looks after the technical side: hosting, security, backups and keeping everything running.
When he's not at a keyboard he's at the forge, making tools, knives and hardware. If it can be made from a bar of steel, he's probably had a go.

Why it matters to you
We make things for a living, just like you.
We speak your language
We know the difference between a quote and an estimate, and why you can't answer the phone from a roof. Well... shouldn't...
We know good work when we see it
We make things ourselves, so we know how to show your work so it looks as good as it is.
We run a small business too
Two people, one workshop, no investors. We price things the way we'd want to be charged.
From the workshop
Timber, steel, and the odd website.
