Broken Heart Woodworks: Hand Made Woodworks

Welcome to Broken Heart Woodworks website.

My name is Matt and I build stuff (banjos and other musical instruments and longboards). The site was designed to show off what I'm doing and what I've made. I don't do any production work which means that everything here is a one-of-a-kind. It also means I do a lot of work the hardway, by hand. So please take a look at the site!

NEWS UPDATE: MARCH 2008 - It looks like this will be it for a while. I've been accepted into the Peace Corps and am going to try and make a difference in Malawi, Africa where I will be working with communities and natural resources. I will also be on the look out for musicians and instrument builders for any inspiration that they can provide. I was planning on taking a banjo but no matter how I tried, I could not fit it into the Peace Corps' luggage size requirements. So, I have decided to take a ukulele. This means that you can probably expect to see a new addition to the Broken Heart instruments in the near future.

We are also trying to set up a blog so keep a look out for that. It's success will greatly depend on my access to the world wide web (it could be very limited!).

See you all down the road some time.
