About Us
Matt
Founder, head of technical stuff and things, and chief nerd. Matt first got into CNCing in 2021 as a hobby and since then has acquired 80 square metres in workshop space and a second CNC machine.
Alongside Matt Makes Objects, Matt is a technology consultant specialising in cloud infrastructure and data products. Matt has always had an interest in woodworking and undertaken many (personal) home renovations - CNC-ing is the perfect blend of his tech and woodworking skills.

Claire - Maker & Operations Lead
Matt's partner Claire joined the team in 2024, alongside her work as a People & Capability professional & Coach.
She is learning the workshop business from sawdust up to support the development of operations and look after customers and their projects.
Claire is a hobby sewist and loves exploring the similarities and differences in the design and making process between clothes and furniture! Particularly all the amazing material choices - who knew you could get so many types of ply.
Favourite tool: Track saw
Next Product Design: A sewing table with machine drop for flatbed sewing
Gabby - Maker
Gabby joined the team in 2024. She is a photographer so her eye for design and detail is coming in handy as she starts to develop new product designs. She is also a master with the spray gun and is a perfectionist when it comes to finishing your product.
We are also looking forward to Gabby levelling up our product images this year!
Favourite tool: Reciprocating saw 😂
