Creating unique objects, one at a time by hand.
Thank you for stopping by my humble wood shop, here you can find all sorts of wooden objects that I craft by hand. Your purchases help to support my small woodworking business and it means the world to me, so a huge thank you!
“My workshop is simple, humble and honest, there are few power tools in it. Woodworking is a meditative experience for me, I try to retain that sense of peace by using hand tools as much as possible.”
Hi there! I'm Laurie Phillip Parslow (L.P.Parslow) a self taught woodworker based in Birmingham, United Kingdom. I've been working wood since infancy with my Grandfather and Father teaching, and passing on their cumulative knowledge.
“Many of the objects in our homes now are plastic, sterile and mass produced in factories, they reflect our modern world. Handmade objects remind us of the beauty of nature and the magic of working with our hands”
Over the last decade I've dedicated himself to learning and understanding the practice of using traditional hand tools, in particular Japanese carpentry tools as well as studying the art of shaping wood into beautiful carvings.
“Using hand tools takes us back to the time of our forefathers who shaped their world with their own two hands”
Outside of Woodworking, I love to read, draw, collect and paint miniatures, and listen to Blues Music!
