5 out of 5 starsWorking with Paul was easy and professional with the shipment arriving earlier than expected. The burned wood is interesting and once I cleaned it up the wood took on an unexpected luster. I look forward to using it in a basket creation.

5 out of 5 starsCottonwood is known to have very colorful burls. However, this is the most colorful cottonwood burl that I have seen. It was very nicely crafted and delivered right away.

Honey Locust Burl nested bowl set - a recently commissioned piece for a customer in Florida. Exceptional wood.

The illusion is that the piece is barely there. If the piece was solid, the form would reveal a perfect vase shape.

A Box Elder Burl nested set is cored and turned to final thickness to dry and be sanded for finishing

Turning bowls from a single pieces of wood - must be turned twice. This is the rough-out - for drying. Figured poplar.

Pardon my dust. I'm currently building a new shop for more great things to come. Hope to move in early next year.
I turn wood into cool stuff.
