About David Luckensmeyer
For nearly four decades David has pursued the craft of woodworking, first as a hobby and then professionally. Along the way, he became a part-time stay-at-home-dad, a business manager of a specialist clinic in Brisbane, and earned a PhD from the University of Queensland.
David’s time is shared between family, management, his shop and writing. Linda Nathan, editor of Australian Wood Review, invited David to contribute an article in 2021. He is now a regular contributor.
This website serves to document David’s woodworking projects and publications.
