About Timber & Grain


From one maker to another.

Hi, I’m Daniel, founder of Timber & Grain in Knoxville, Tennessee.

For nearly a decade, I’ve been collecting, restoring, and creating with ShopSmith tools—a journey that sparked a passion for designing custom, problem-solving accessories that simply didn’t exist in the market.

That’s how the ZeroClear™ product line was born—precision-engineered woodworking solutions that make your ShopSmith more versatile, accurate, and safe.


Built in my shop. Tested on my own machine.

Every Timber & Grain product is something I personally use in my own woodworking projects—from the ZeroClear DrillPlate™ with replaceable SafeZone™ discs, to the RipPlate™ and other custom upgrades with integrated dust collection.

Each piece is CNC-machined in-house using premium materials like 13-ply Baltic birch plywood and durable PETG or PLA for 3D-printed components.

Every item is hand-sanded, inspected, and finished before leaving the shop—because precision starts with care.


More than just ShopSmith solutions.

While Timber & Grain is best known for the ZeroClear™ Series, I also take on custom CNC, furniture, and sign projects, each built with the same attention to detail and respect for the craft.

Whether you’re a ShopSmith owner, a fellow maker, or simply someone who values handmade craftsmanship, I’d love to build something for you.


Thank you.

Every order supports a small, independent woodworking shop—and helps me keep creating, innovating, and sharing better tools with makers everywhere.

— Daniel
