Wind Ridge Wood Crafts

Wind Ridge Wood Crafts is run by Mike Schienle (Shen-lee) with loving inspiration from my wife, Rev. Dr. Rhonda Schienle. I have had an interest in woodworking for as long as I can remember.

Some of this goes back to watching my grandfather, who had a little shed in the back yard where he created everything from whimsical wood and beer can whirlygigs that turned and bobbed in the wind to miniature 4 cylinder engines that he hand-assembled.

My dad was also very good at home DIY projects. He built or remodeled bathrooms and bedrooms in our homes, barns for our sheep, goats and chickens, lofts in the garage and decks and pergolas in the back yard. I was always there to help out growing up.

After 30+ years as a software engineer, I've invested my time, tools, techniques and knowledge into woodworking. I now focus on craft work, such as signs, boxes and pens, and have a renewed passion for the experiences that brought me so much joy in my younger days.
