Hanging Barrel Stave Stemware Rack
Custom commissioned for a Local Winery Tasting room. We've updated this design to now hold 8 stems while maintaining proper spacing between stems. Each stemware holder glows with natural beauty and warmth of aged fine oak. Crafted of lovingly reclaimed wine barrel staves that have been gently hand rubbed to 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, kitchen, tasting room, bar, wine cellar, studio, cabin, beach house, or location of your choosing in graceful elegance.

"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 Bolt Action 30 Caliber Pen In Gun Metal Gray And Cocobolo5.0I bought this pen as a father's day gift for my father. Randy was right on top of completing my order, having it engraved and shipping it out with plenty of time for the holiday. My dad absolutely loves it and said it was one of the most unique presents he'd ever received. The quality of the craftsmanship is excellent.

For Wooden Guitar Picks With Hand-Shaped Thumb Grip5.0After I placed my order, I told Randy what my time-line was - and he responded so well, he got the finished items to me 10 days before my deadline! Really excellent response!
His communication was also excellent - giving me a really good range of items to make my selection from.
Clearly his work is excellent - I really like them, and I'm sure the end recipient will likewise!
They were well packed, and arrived in excellent order.
All in all - this was a superb experience, and I won't hesitate to recommend to others.
Thank you

For Steampunk Pen In Cocobolo And Antique Pewter And Copper5.0It was an absolute pleasure working with Randy to create a customized steampunk pen for my stepfather. His dedication to his craft is evident in every way.. from the questions he asked (..in order to ensure I would get exactly what I envisioned in my mind's-eye..), to suggestions he made (i.e. possibly including a customized pen box), to his timely execution & prompt delivery of my pen. This is a one-of-a-kind gift. I also enjoyed getting to know Randy on a personal level as I too enjoy creating art true to the Art's & Crafts movement & aesthetic. Can't thank you enough, Randy!!
