About
5th Line Design Studio is a small home based business specializing in the production of high quality, custom products made from wood, acrylic and other machine-able materials. The designer and craftsman, Randy, has been making unique creations for over 45 years. (Click here for some of his formative and recent personal projects). Trained as an electrical engineer and having worked in the IT industry for over 35 years, he is interested in the intersection of art and technology.

As a Canadian military veteran, Randy is also familiar with designing unique items for other veterans and serving members.
