I have been making from wood for as long as I can remember. I take a great deal of pride in my work and will not accept a commission if I am not entirely sure I can complete it to your satisfaction. ShopDog Turnery is a one-person, one-dog operation making all sorts of custom items, primarily lathe based. This includes bottle-stoppers, wine glasses (with glass or wooden bowls), platters and plates, bowls, boxes, and whatever else springs to mind.
In addition to lathe work I make various flat pieces; tables, specialty boxes, cutting boards and, again, whatever else springs to mind.
I make for the joy of the making, using sustainably harvested and reclaimed or historical woods exclusively.
Molly was the ShopDog, but is no longer with us. She did all the "RUFF" work in the turnery.

For Custom canesThe cane turned out well. So far, it's holding up. It looks good. Jim was pleasant to work with. The price paid was fair, especially for the high quality.

For Pork Only PleaseLove, love , love my extra large cutting board. Exactly what I described, we communicated and sent pictures so I could get color and style exactly right. I am ordering two more, beautifully crafted and an amazing value. Thanks for a gorgeous piece that I will love for a very long time.
