Salt And Pepper Shakers

$16

These salt and pepper shakers were cut from 1/16″ walnut stock using a laser cutter. The laser cuts a kerf so thin, it almost has no thickness, just enough for the the pieces to fit together tightly. The laser also seems to 'caramelize' the end grain of the wood in a nice way. Finished with food safe walnut oil

  • Long-time member

    A Maker who has been a valued part of this community for several years.

  • Fast shipper

    Customers say that this Maker ships promptly after completing a project.

  • Great service

    This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.

The example projects shown here were made without any idea of commercializing them.  They were made for the enjoyment of creative work.  After some encouragement from my family, I was convinced that making a business of this would be a way to get more work done, to focus and to spread the ideas further.

I have experience in a wide range of project types; from furniture to boatbuilding.  The common thread is that I am inspired by the tradition of craftsmanship, the value of good design, and a belief in the strong interdependence of thinking and making. If people who see and use these pieces feel the same joy that I experienced in making in them, in the materialization of ideas, then I will feel it was a success.

If you are interested in one of the example projects or would like to discuss a different project, please get in touch.
