Welcome to Wine Glass Bar Sawmill



Wine Glass Bar Sawmill is Arizona's “urban lumber" leader.





Urban lumber is an artform. It's a zero-waste way of doing business, a true “green” industry, and an all-new way of yielding one of the oldest and most necessary of commodities on the planet. Wine Glass Bar Sawmill--with owners, Rex Condie and LaVor Smith --is making this exciting industry work, right in the heart of downtown Phoenix.



Urban lumber means taking trees that have grown in the landscape and, for whatever reason, are headed to the landfill, but, instead, we rescue them and repurpose them, creating uniquely beautiful live-edge slabs—all with rich character and warmth of exotic hardwoods. Artisans and woodworkers—both amateurs and professionals—then use the slabs and turn them into furniture, mantles, countertops, musical instruments, art pieces, and much more. When the tree service cuts down those overgrown, blown-down, or unwanted trees, please save the millable portion of the tree so it can be given a new life, “saved from the landfill!” When a tree no longer remains as an asset, but is a liability, it should be removed, but it can be repurposed. Wine Glass Bar Sawmill gives new life to old or unwanted trees. Instead of this wood being wasted or turned into firewood, chipped or dumped, Wine Glass Bar Sawmill can turn these trees into beautiful, usable lumber.
