About MCA Workshop

Mike Allen is a custom woodworker based in Newark, Ohio, where he has lived for many years. He builds one-of-a-kind woodwork made entirely to order—each piece shaped by hand to match the customer's vision, space, and needs.

Nothing leaves his shop that is mass-produced or off-the-shelf. Mike works closely with every client, listening carefully to ideas, measurements, preferred woods, finishes, and the story behind the piece. The result is furniture, cabinetry, accents, and functional objects that feel personal and built to last.

You can see examples of his completed work in the gallery. Those pieces reflect the range of projects he takes on and the level of care that goes into every joint, surface, and detail.

If you have something in mind—whether it's a specific design, a problem that needs a wooden solution, or simply a starting idea—reach out through the contact page. Mike is happy to talk through possibilities, materials, timelines, and how a custom piece might fit into your home or space.

Local roots, careful craftsmanship, and work made for the person who ordered it: that is the approach Mike brings to every project.
