Welcome to my little home on the web. I would like to share with you my passion of wood-turning. Here you'll find information and a few samples of what I do.
My creations range from functional pieces, to Elegant hand crafted woodturnings of simple beauty,
Wood, in its natural state is pleasing to the eye and a pleasure to touch. It is my goal as a wood turner to use the elements of style and craftsmanship to make a statement that enhances the natural beauty and unique properties of each piece of wood.
I hope my work brings you the feeling of warmth and pleasure it was intended to when I created it.
Wood turnings makes a excellent choice for that one of a kind Personal or Unique Gift or Centre piece for conversation.
All of the materials for my creative processes are reclaimed. No living trees are ever cut and only storm felled trees and remnants from land clearing are used.
To enhance the natural beauty of my creations they are typically finished with several applications of high quality natural oils or a urethane finish when a more durable protection is appropriate. Surface treatments may also include texturing, sandblasting, carving, bleaching, staining and dyeing. Hand buffing and, in some cases, the application of a hard carnauba wax gives a rich luster to the end result. Finished pieces require very little attention. Maintaining the surface sheen usually requires only buffing with a soft cloth.
