ShopDog Turnery
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.

Mar 31, 2016Jim is a true craftsman. From my very first interaction with him he was easy to work with and happy to help come up with some ideas and concepts. The finished product surpasses all of my expectations. Thank you so much for helping me give my dad a one of a kind gift. I will highly recommend Jim to anyone I know.

Dec 9, 2023Working with Jim Barbour was a very positive experience. I especially liked Mr. Barbour's prompt communications with me about my custom, personalized cutting board project and I was promptly informed of the status of my project along the way. I highly recommend this craftsman.

Sep 18, 2014I would definitely work with this maker again. While my project was a very small one in comparison to others (a maple chess rook), we wanted one that matched our existing chess set (the puppy chewed up the original rook). Jim did a terrific job of matching it to an existing one. His price was very reasonable. He responded quickly to messages and I'm thrilled with the competed project. Thank you very very much!
