The world sees a decrease in the all-masonry fireplace as a common feature in the typical home; the 'Stonwerk' name is born. Stonwerk's attention is focused on the almost-forgotten art of stone masonry, which had been all but eliminated in the modern world and in the Twin Cities region.

Stonwerk moves its shop and office from Mound to Watertown. Stonfab, A sister company is spawned, and Stonfab purchases a 3-axis CNC stone router and a CNC stone wire saw to increase its on-site capability and service.
