Different Drummer Workshop
50 years of toy making
In 1973, Frank moved his family from suburban Massachusetts to Solon, Maine to start a family business making wooden toys. The intention was to make simple, unfinished, well-sanded wooden toys that encourage a chid's imagination, are safe to play with and chew on, and will last a lifetime....maybe even a second generation.
There have been business shifts, life changes and relocations, but the original intentions remain. Today, Frank and Lisa ( Frank's oldest child) continue to make wooden toys. We take pride in our toys and are happy that people see the value in our simple, well-made toys.
