THE IN GOOD TIME STORY

Hi, I’m Joel – the hands, heart, and mind behind In Good Time, based in Auckland, New Zealand. I’ve always been drawn to creating things that are both beautiful and functional. With a background in engineering and a passion for hands-on craftsmanship, I’ve built a small business that blends modern technology with traditional woodworking to create distinctive, high-quality time pieces.

What started as a hobby in my home workshop has grown into a purpose-driven business. I use a blend of modern CNC precision and traditional hand-finishing techniques to ensure every clock and custom creation is not only visually striking but made to stand the test of time. I work primarily with sustainably sourced hardwoods, chosen for their durability, natural beauty, and unique character — no two pieces are ever the same.

My goal is simple: to craft objects that feel personal, meaningful, and timeless — whether it’s a statement clock for your home, a decorative keepsake for your child, or a branded feature piece for your business. I especially enjoy collaborating on clocks that reflect a company's identity, offering a functional yet personal touch to office spaces, lobbies, or client gifts.

Thanks for stopping by and supporting independent craftsmanship and sustainable design. I’m always happy to chat about custom projects, so if you have an idea in mind, I’d love to help you bring it to life.
