Kaleb, the Baby Bear

Kaleb, the youngest of all five brothers, is the woodworker of the bunch. Kaleb recounts his first experience woodworking when he was knee-high to a grasshopper, screwing bits of scrap wood together in his father's garage.

Working full-time as a Recruiting and Retention NCO for the Iowa Army National Guard, Kaleb spends much of his time traveling Iowa and training his warriors. Kaleb and his wife, Courtney, have a young son named Silas, and are also the proud parents of Scout: the Shop Dog.

Kaleb's true passion for woodworking started in 2016 after helping his father build a lean-to onto their garage at his family home. With a number of years of construction experience doing roofing, gutters and more, as well as serving as a Sergeant in an Engineering Unit with the Iowa Guard, Kaleb's experience varies greatly, but he most enjoys the finer works which are on display here at Bear Hand Customs!
