Kip Keel, craftsman and co-owner of Tight Lines, began building his own rods and tying flies in the late sixties and has never stopped. His interests in the outdoors, coupled with almost 30 years of building fine furniture and custom cabinetry, developed into the line of furniture that you will see here.

Kip learned his craft while at the knee of his grandfather, a second generation Austrian furniture maker. He was taught the Old World techniques and good common sense. Kip has never been one to turn down a challenge. He has been commissioned by known artists to build furniture of their design.

Combining the skills learned from his grandfather, a natural talent for wood crafting and a desire to create something beautiful yet functional- Kip has designed cases that are well worth passing on from generation to generation.
