Copper Pig Woodworking: Secrets of Fine Woodworking and Design

Step into the world of Paul Jasper, the talented craftsman behind Copper Pig Woodworking. In this documentary, we explore the meticulous process, thoughtful design, and deep passion that drive Paul’s work. As a self-taught woodworker who honed his skills with the guidance of mentors and classes, Paul demonstrates that being a "hobbyist" doesn't equate to a lack of seriousness or skill. His dedication to fine woodworking shines through in every piece he creates.

Join us as Paul shares his journey, from his humble beginnings with his mentor Hal, to his advanced training at the Furniture Institute of Massachusetts and North Bennett Street School. Learn how his apprenticeship with Freddy Roman further elevated his craftsmanship and integrated him into the community of professional furniture makers in New England.

Paul’s focus on design and unique artistry is evident in every project, making his work not just functional, but also pieces of art meant to be cherished for generations. This documentary delves into Paul’s philosophy that woodworking is more than just a trade—it's a medium for expressing creativity and bringing joy to others through beautifully crafted heirlooms.
