Woodprops
[last updated September 2, 2024]
Welcome to the original “Aimee Wood Works”, my old cosplay prop shop, specializing in life-size wooden replicas.
My last name is Wood, and the Wood family has a long history of woodworking and practical commissions to make our livings. My own woodwork is a far cry from the carpentry and furniture making of the past, but it was wonderful to teach myself the craft and continue the tradition.
Below are a few of my past woodworking projects. From 2014 to 2020, I primarily earned my livelihood by making life-size wooden props for cosplayers and collectors, specializing in wooden replicas of keyblades, gunblades, and swords from video games and anime.
As of Summer 2020, I no longer have a woodshop space and have ceased my professional woodworking. While I hope to run a workshop again someday, I do not believe I will make the same things— 500 kingdom key keyblades alone takes its toll on a person.
My career as a Keyblade Mastercrafter is over, but when I have a workshop again, I would enjoy crafting a small annual run of kingdom key keyblades (if you are interested, contact me, and I will add you to the waiting list). ♥︎
While my woodshop was open, I took this Work quite seriously. Over 750 of my life-size wooden props exist in the world! Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to each and every one of my customers. I am very protective of your continued happiness- if you purchased a prop from me in the past and need any help at all, with maintenance, repairs, or anything else, send me a message on Etsy. I hope you are doing well!
And without further ado, a few examples of my Woodwork, click to enlarge:
