Gilbert Ellis is the man behind Southwest Story Forge. He spent 36 years as an HVAC contractor, and he also worked as a behavioral health counselor. He served in the U.S. Army in the late 1960s.
Today Gilbert is retired and makes his home in the Arizona desert. He has been married to his lovely wife for 54 years, and he is a father and a grandfather. He likes to keep both his mind and his body active, and that's where this shop comes from.
In his woodshop he makes handmade pieces. At his desk he creates books, designs for small wood projects, and print-on-demand designs. You'll find those items here.
Thanks for stopping by.
