"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 Executive Pen In Olive Wood. Satin Finished Accents5.0My experience with Randy was fantastic. He finished the pen sooner than expected and he arranged to hold the shipping until it was closer to the holiday as I was having it shipped directly to the recipient. He always answered any questions promptly. My brother loved the pen and I think it was well worth the price. I would not hesitate to order from him again.
