Nathan Murphy lives in a nicely wooded area in Madison, Ind., an inspirational setting for a woodworker. He builds primarily guitars, along with custom furniture made with lumber almost exclusively from a home sawmill. When he’s not up to his ankles in sawdust at his own shop, he can usually be found at the Marc Adams School of Woodworking, where he’s been a student, intern, and assistant.
