Turning and Wood Main Page
I don't have 'amazing artistic talent' and 'fantastic creative abilities'.
I will not 'shrivel up and die' if I
stop turning, and the happiness in my heart does not depend on the 'output of my artistic personality'...
However, I do get ratty if I don't get to turn frequently, I feel very satisfied when I have made something I am happy with, and I love playing with wood and tools. It's fun. And well, yes - I do have the right surname, so that probably helps too. Enjoy! I did.
Turning
This section has
bowls, platters and plates.
You will also find smaller
1/12th scale and miniature items,
nicely made (good for gifts) hand sized
boxes and other pretty things
and for big girls and boys who still enjoy games -
spinners, cribbage pegs and other toys.
For those looking for a special writing instrument I have
hand turned pens,
for lacemakers there are
bobbins
and other
lace making things
and finally, in
walking sticks
there are turned handles, shanks and collars,
New to wood:
tobacco pipe making blanks for the pipe maker - professional quality wood at a fair price.
As well as selling top quality
pen blanks to pen makers, I also provide wood in the shape of
miniature and 1/12th scale turning blanks
and
bobbin blanks for other turners.
For carvers and pyrographers I offer
lime carving blanks
for relief work and
turned pyrography and carving blanks,
and for cutlers (knife makers), I offer my top quality
knife scales
(this link goes to my other site - www.knifescales.co.uk), and other knife building materials.
