Amish-built furniture and other structures is known to be crafted to the highest quality using traditional techniques with hand tools. The attention to detail is superb, resulting in long-lasting items that become heirloom pieces.

Many examples can be found at New York-based outdoor shelter company The Barn Raiser.
