Self-balancing Wine bottle holder. Add a little whimsy and style as your favorite bottle of wine hangs in perfect balance. Carefully crafted to exact dimensions, this wine bottle holder will fit most unopened bottles. Built from select, lovingly reclaimed wine barrel staves gently hand rubbed to a soft hue to bring out the natural highlights of fine oak. Feel the warmth of aged oak. See the rich purple patina and smell the unmistakable red wine bouquet. What once embraced the fruit of the vine is reclaimed to beautify your home in graceful elegance. Limited hand engraving options are available as seen in some of the images here. You can see an example of creating initial templates and the finished engraved bottle holders. I can offer single letter engraving or it can be laser engraved with logos, personal messages, or customized to your specifications. Additional costs for engraving depend on engraving needs. (Wine bottle not included) Passion and heart is put into every single item I create… From my hands to yours!

"Let me build you a dream"
Fine woodworker for over 30 years.
Influenced early in life by the craftsmanship and resourcefulness of my Father, my Grandfather and a close neighbor-master-craftsman and access to many tools, it didn’t take long to be bitten by the woodworking bug. I’ve enjoyed challenges in many different aspects of woodworking including creative inlay, abrasive sculpturing, and woodturning, items big and small, working with woods literally from all parts of the world.
Have you ever found or experienced something/anything in life that just makes you say "that's so me!"? That is what wood does for me. I see a chunk of wood; I see what it can be. Others may see firewood. I see the intricate beauty, color, grain, smell, it's life story. I see it's endless possibilities and what it can be!
Hand in hand, I also love to re-use and re-purpose items into new life. Make use of instead of disposing of!!! Something doubly special happens when you take something with a story or history, save it from the landfill or dump, and re-purpose it. You honor the history, you honor who originally designed it, created it, what it was made for, and give it a whole new story with new life and purpose that adds to all that priceless history.
Some of the “strangest” items I’ve been asked to make include wooden guitar picks, some with inlaid designs. I’ve enjoyed the creativity and challenges found in the functional art form of high-end wooden pen turning; the complexity in custom segmented wooden pens of unlimited uniqueness. Some of my work has even been published in Pen World International. Other Entrepreneurial interests landed me a deal making marionettes for Knott’s Berry Farm toy store as early as middle school. One theme rings clear in all the varied challenges I’ve tackled – If you can dream it, I can make it!
Always open to chat if you have ideas, thoughts, questions etc. I'm personally very guilty of creating something "just because I can", so don't worry if you think your idea may not make the best of sense!

For Steampunk Pen In Cocobolo And Antique Pewter And CopperThis Cocobolo Steampunk pen is absolutely first-rate!
The metallic components are exquisite and super fun, though the wood and Randy's craftsmanship are definitely the stars of the show.
Randy sent updates (with pictures!) throughout his creation process, and I had the pen in my hands a week before the original delivery estimate.
I wouldn't hesitate to shop with Randy again, and I can't recommend him enough!
