About Beaver & Kit

“Welcome to Beaver & Kit, a labor of love crafted by me, David, with unwavering support from my wife, Gem, and fueled by the inspiration drawn from our cherished little kits.

The journey began in 2020, amidst the ‘Lockdown,’ when a simple mud kitchen project revealed my passion for woodworking. As we navigated the idle hours, memories of my late grandad, a skilled craftsman with a thriving building company in my Yorkshire hometown, resurfaced. His untimely stroke prevented him from returning to his beloved craft. Reflecting on his legacy, and driven by my wife’s ambitious project requests – from a giant sandpit to a sleeper bench – I realized that woodworking, deeply embedded in my genes, deserved nurturing.

With that vision, we embarked on a remarkable journey. From reminiscing about my grandad to fulfilling my wife’s dreams, the evolution was swift. Soon, materials arrived, and a month later, we proudly unveiled our workshop in a video you can watch here! Thus, Beaver and Kit came to life, a testament to the passion for woodworking that runs in our veins.”
