Preserving Craftsmanship, One Detail at a Time

Hi, I’m Tom.

I’ve spent a lifetime admiring old, charming, and historic homes, buildings, and landscapes. There is a level of classic architecture and honest craftsmanship in vintage properties that you simply can’t find in modern construction without paying a small fortune. Older homes were built with purpose—strong bones, tight-grain timber, and details crafted to last centuries.

That’s why so many of us are drawn to them, and it’s the exact reason I founded Circa 72 Forge.

My mission is to help more people restore, protect, and revitalize these classic properties. Whether you are bringing original wood window sashes back to life, matching historic moldings, or breathing new life into a piece of antique furniture, you need materials that can handle the abuse and stand the test of time. I source and offer high-quality, authentic products designed specifically for these projects.

Restoration is a shared passion. I’d love to see what you’re working on! Send me an email with photos of your ongoing or completed projects. I’m building a showcase page on the site to share your work, celebrate real craftsmanship, and inspire others to roll up their sleeves and take on their own restoration projects.
