Exhibitions and bespoke carpentry, made in Scotland since 2012.

Display cases, exhibition builds and production CNC, all made in our own workshop near Glasgow for designers, museums, architects and makers.


Podbox is run by Alan Hawthorne, who trained in architecture. We build exhibitions, museum display cases, furniture and other finely crafted timber objects from a workshop just outside Glasgow.

About Podbox

What we do

Exhibition builds, display cases and object mounts for museums and exhibition designers, made to the drawings and checked before they leave the workshop.

Exhibitions & display

Fabrication

High-quality builds in plywood and sheet timber: fit-outs, public-space structures and furniture. Installation available on request.

Got a product in timber that needs made? From first prototype to large production batches of accurately cut parts.

Production CNC

Laser cutting & engraving

Precision cutting and engraving in timber, acrylic and card, as part of a project or on its own.

Have an exhibition to build or a product to make?

Every job starts with a conversation. Send a sketch, a few photos or rough quantities and we’ll take it from there.
