Basement Woodworks Inc was founded in 2004 and is owned and operated by AWC (NAC/AW) USN Retired, Sean L. Arnold and son Alex Arnold.
I started building Military Shadow Boxes and Plaques while I was still on active duty for friends and the Chief’s Mess. As I approached retirement, I often asked myself what I was going to do with my life after the Navy? How can I remain in touch with those whom I had served with. The answer was clear. Having three children at home with special needs, I decided to be a “Stay at home Dad” and work out of my home building Shadow Boxes. Soon after retirement my father, Harry Arnold, decided to join me with my venture. As my children got older and less dependent on me, the local trophy store, Accolades Awards & Trophy, went up for sale. I decided at the time to purchase it and expand my business becoming a full service trophy and awards shop in the heart of Brunswick Maine’s downtown district.
