H. Arnold Wood Turning, Inc. is proud to celebrate over a century of continuous operation as a family-owned custom wood products manufacturer. Since 1919, we’ve helped thousands of customers, from manufacturers and contractors to homeowners and architects, bring their projects to life with turned components and made-to-order wood solutions.

Longevity in the wood industry isn’t an accident. It’s the result of exceptional service, consistency, and the ability to evolve with the needs of customers across generations.

“Today we really take the time to get to know and understand our customers’ needs,” said Vice President and fourth-generation co-owner Jonathan Arnold. “This, coupled with excellent customer service and competitive prices, sets us apart from our competition.”

As a fourth-generation business, Arnold Wood Turning continues to stand out not just for what we make, but for how we work. We speak with customers directly. We answer questions over the phone. Not only that, but we help spec materials, match existing pieces, and guide projects from idea to delivery.

In 2025, that kind of service is rare. But we believe it’s essential.

Our century-long success comes from building more than just wood components. It also comes from building relationships.

As a full-service custom wood products manufacturer, our offerings span a wide range of industries and applications. We produce broom and mop handles, custom turnings, crates and boxes, shaped and bent wood parts, wooden balusters, finials, spindles, columns, and more.

We specialize in projects that require flexibility, custom sizing, short runs, or architectural precision. If it can be turned, shaped, or custom-cut, we’ve probably made it.

Founded in 1919 in Brooklyn, NY by Herman Arnold and his son William, Arnold Wood Turning began as a small operation manufacturing wood turnings.

Over the next century, the business evolved. It soon grew into a national supplier of architectural and industrial wood products. Today, the company is run by Herman’s grandson Bruce Arnold and his great-grandson Jonathan, with additional leadership from Melissa Arnold Friedman and Ann Arnold. Read more about our story here.

As a family-owned business, we take pride in combining time-tested methods with modern responsiveness. The same care that built the company still guides every order we ship.

Whether you’re a manufacturer sourcing bulk components, a builder needing custom stair parts, or a homeowner restoring a historic property, we are the custom wood products manufacturer you can trust.
