The Heart
After flying helicopters in the Navy and Coast Guard for 23 years, Nicole is now at the controls of Smoke Eater Woodcraft. With a career spent in service to others, she brings precision, problem solving, and a creative spark to every project. The steady hand and sharp eye behind Smoke Eater Woodcraft, Nicole is committed to making every customer’s vision a reality.
The Soul
An Army veteran and former firefighter, Bob picked up woodworking as a creative and therapeutic outlet for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Today, Bob channels his precision and creativity into designing and building custom, high-quality wood furnishings. Known for his meticulous attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction, Bob’s mission is to create timeless pieces that reflect the unique vision of every client.
The Slobber
Juno is a trained Service Dog and Bob’s loyal (and wrinkly) sidekick. She loves people and enjoys petting the humans wherever she and Bob go. Just watch out for those slobbery jowls!

Let’s Talk.
Whether you see something you like in our portfolio, or have something custom in mind, we would love to hear from you!
