About The Wood

 Usable Wood Turnings:

Wood Turnings that can be both displayed as art and also used as a functional piece are an added benefit.  Bowls make a great gift for yourself or a friend. The bowls I make can be used for everyday food use or just for display. They are easy to take care of and will last for years with proper and easy care.

Custom Bowls~

If you want to keep the memory of a tree that recently fell in your backyard,  I can make a custom bowl out of it. Please contact me at 330-776-8210 for more information.
