A little Oak craftsmanship, from the making process to the finished chair. 🪵

Made by us in our Hawke’s Bay workshop, with care taken along the way.

Fancy a sit? You can try our Oak Cape Cod chairs in person at The Art Shed Bayview, Napier. 😊

THIS WEEK FROM STIM

It's been a shorter week thanks to Labour Day, and we've taken a little time to put our feet up and recover after a brilliant day at Kinloch Market. What a day! A big thank you to everyone who came along and showed us some love. ❤️

Back in the workshop now, and there's been plenty ticking along.

Here's a little of what we've been up to…

🪵 Barrel-head Lazy Susans – More underway after selling out at Kinloch. Seems you lot rather like these!

🪑 Oak Cape Cod chairs – A gorgeous set delivered to The Art Shed in Bay View. They're onsite and ready for you to try out. We've also got another set underway, which we expect to have ready for our next market.

✨ Custom work – Finishing up a bit of personalised laser engraving for a local client.

And that's just a few of the jobs keeping us out of mischief. Plenty of other little projects happening in between!

Next stop…

📍 Sherenden & Districts Country Market
Saturday 7 November | 10am–3pm
2129 Taihape Road, Hastings

We'll be loading up the trailer with some Stim favourites and hopefully a few new goodies too.

If you're out and about, come find us and say hello!

Can't make it to the market? No worries, you can browse our range and shop online anytime at stim co nz

Made to last. Made for using. Made in Hawke's Bay.

Not quite right? Back to the sander it goes! 😉

Paul likes to get things right, even if it means doing it twice.

No shortcuts here. Just good timber, a bit more elbow grease, and making things properly. 🪵

Kinloch Market — WOW, what a day! 🤎

A huge thank you to the organisers for putting on such a fantastic market, and to everyone who stopped by for a chat, had a browse or took a little piece of Stim home with them.

It was great to be part of the 25th anniversary market and to share our handcrafted timber creations with you all.

Markets like these take a lot of work behind the scenes, so a big shout-out to everyone who helped make the day happen.

We’ve come home with tired feet, happy hearts and plenty of memories!

Thanks, Kinloch. You were awesome! 🪵🤎

Made in Hawke’s Bay. Made for using.

Measured, cut and made right here in our Hawke’s Bay workshop. No shortcuts, just good old-fashioned craftsmanship.

There’s always prep work to be done behind the scenes! 🔨

With the hoop nails out, I’m flattening these sections before they move on to the next stage. A bit of planning, teamwork and doing things properly, the Stim way!

**This Week from Stim 🌿**

A long weekend ahead for Hawke’s Bay! 🎉

With HB Anniversary Friday and Labour Day Monday, you might think we’d be putting our feet up. Not quite! 😄

This week has been a little less woodworking and a whole lot more checking, planning and list-making. Because when you’re packing up a workshop and heading away for a market, there’s always *something* to remember!

On Saturday, we’re off to Taupō, ready for an early setup Sunday morning at the **25th Anniversary of Kinloch Market**. We’re super excited to be part of it!

We’ll be bringing a selection of Stim favourites, plus some new products we can’t wait to share.

📍 Find us at **Site J17/18** if you’re coming along!

Now, back to the lists… have we forgotten anything? 🤔

Another step forward on Paul’s dust cyclone project! 🔧

Lots of little jobs, plenty of screws and bolts, and a whole lot of problem-solving along the way.

A few moments later… and still screwing! 😂

Three years ago, we bought 200 lazy Susan bearings. Today, Paul is giving the very last one a spin! 😂

Every lazy Susan we've made and sent out the door has been a little part of our Stim journey.

Thanks for supporting our small, family-run NZ business. It really does mean a lot. ❤️

This Week from Stim

It’s been another busy week at Stim as we continue building stock for our upcoming events and keeping our current orders moving.

An Oak Bistro Table, Barrel-Head Lazy Susans and a couple of butcher’s blocks are among the pieces keeping the workshop busy. Every piece goes through our quality checks because we have high standards for what leaves our workshop, and we like to keep it that way!

We’ve also welcomed more fresh w**e barrels, full of possibilities for future creations.

Spring weather continues to keep us guessing, with changing conditions adding another challenge to working with timber and reclaimed materials.

And, as always, Sharron has been busy behind the scenes, keeping all the other parts of Stim ticking along. There’s plenty that goes on behind the scenes to keep a small business moving!

🎄 Thinking about a custom Stim gift for Christmas?

Now’s the time to get in touch. Once our workshop schedule fills up, we’ll need to close the door on new custom orders to ensure everything can be made and sent out in time.

📍 Next up: Kinloch Market, Sunday 25 October

Another week down, plenty happening, and lots more to come!

Have a great weekend from us both at Stim. 😊
