Hi, I'm Dennis – mechanical engineer, trained cabinetmaker, drummer, and problem-solver.
I design and build custom drum hardware for musicians who value thoughtful design, precision, and long-term reliability.
Before focusing on this path, I worked in the semiconductor industry, developing custom machinery for wafer production – with a strong emphasis on CAD, prototyping, and high-precision aluminium parts for cleanroom environments.
That experience shaped the way I think about function, clarity, and technical quality. It still informs everything I do today.
But there's something else that’s just as important to me:
I care deeply about how things are made – and where.
Most of what I do happens right here in my own workshop. I design, machine, and finish nearly every part myself – using tools and processes I know inside out. Only the few steps I truly can’t do in-house are handled by small, trusted partners in my region.
No mass production, no overseas outsourcing – ever.
I believe in local value creation – in craftsmanship you can trace, in relationships you can trust, and in keeping the work close to home.
That’s not about image or branding. It’s about doing work I can stand behind – and knowing exactly how and why each part is the way it is.
When I say something is custom, I mean it – from first sketch to final thread.
Outside the workshop, I spend a lot of time outdoors with my wife and our two dogs – hiking, snowboarding, or simply getting some fresh air. I’m also an avid motorcyclist and enjoy spending time on the racetrack, where I get to push both myself and my bike to the limits, exploring the technical side of things. These passions help me clear my mind, and often spark new ideas for my work.
If you’re after something built with purpose – not just made to sell – I’d love to hear from you.
The dog everybody needs
We unexpectedly lost Lara on Nov 30th 2024. We had the chance to say respectfully goodbye and she was able to go in peace. While she might be in a better place, it has been very hard for me (us).
She was my best friend and biggest supporter. I'm heartbroken that this kind and humble being had to leave this planet. Her Story
Have I mentioned that dogs are great?
