About Me
Meet Bill
Tak hooked me when it came out in 2016. Since then I’ve written three books on the game, served for years as president of the US Tak Association, and given away much of my work as tournament prizes. It’s a beautiful game with a wonderful community, and I strive to make the physical game worthy of both.
Outside of Tak, I spend time with my family and work as an amusement equipment technician. My turnaround won’t match a big-box store — but what you receive will reflect the extra time it takes.
My Craft
My skillset spans many disciplines, and I’m always exploring new materials and methods to bring more variety to my work. Here are a few I consider myself competent in.
- Woodworking
- Epoxy resin
- Silicone mold-making
- Stone cutting & turning
- 3D filament printing
- Resin printing
- Laser engraving
- CNC routing
- Small electronics
Custom work
I’m a creator at heart. If you have an idea you want made real, I handle everything from design and prototyping to small-run production.

My work has been reviewed by an outside organization and meets or exceeds its quality standards. A portion of every sale is put back into Tak so everyone wins: I get to tinker & craft, you get to enjoy my work, and Tak continues to grow.
