About Us
Established in 2020 Black Beards Woodworking was born out of a small garage and has turned into a premier destination for craft woodworking pieces.

Our wood is sourced from Alberta, Canada, and milled and kiln dried locally. so that you know that every piece that is purchased from us saves one more tree from being sent to the wood chipper or landfill.

Our Inspiration
Blackbeards is a team of Calgarians with a passion for woodworking and nature. In 2020, we decided it was time to turn a hobby into a business, and Black Beards Woodworking was born out of a small garage and shop.
We love our community and getting creative – so if you have something you’d like commissioned, please send us a message!
Say Hello !
Duncan Ouellette
Owner & Founder
Duncan started with woodworking as a child in his father’s woodshop and has had a passion for working with wood ever since.
He spent over two decades working in oil and gas before deciding that he needed to be doing carpentry for the rest of his life. And just like that Blackbeard’s Woodworking was born.
Blackbeard’s Woodworking was started in 2020 and has been an active part of the Calgary woodworking scene since. It all started with a small woodshop in the city and has grown into a fully functional urban lumber salvage and milling operation.
