We are super excited to introduce Lee![]()
@rustic_realities as a TF Tools Brand Ambassador 😍
Lets tell you a little more about Lee
How did you start in the trade?
My dad was a builder so I’ve always been around tools and building, but I never really knew what I wanted to do, and I just fell into a job at a parish council for 13 years and I ended up being the head groundsman. I knew I wanted to move on and have always had a love of creating so I went to evening collage to do site carpentry. Eventually I got a job with a company building garden rooms and doing extensions, after a while (and a very short stint with another company) I went on my own and started Rustic Realities.
What aspect do you enjoy the most?
My favourite part of the job is putting cedar shingles on a wall. They give any building a rustic ‘ginger bread house’ feel.
What is your favourite job that you have completed?
This is a tricky one, I have fond feelings for pretty much everything I build.
There was a yoga studio I built a year ago clad in oak weatherboard and a wall of cedar shingles that had a storage shed door made from a sheet of old wrinkly tin. I think that one probably has the most cool elements in it, so I’ll say that.

What tool can you not live without?
My favourite tool is probably my Martinez M1 hammer, but the one I have on me all the time is a pica pencil.
What do you enjoy doing in your downtime?
I really like camping, so we try to do that as often as possible, and exploring with my little girl - finding new and interesting places to clamber about and see what we can find.
Welcome Lee as a TF Brand Ambassador 🎉🎉
