Cufflinks

$60

Cufflinks are quite personal so having a set to commemorate an event or person seems appropriate. The asymetric set is from olive wood, carved in the shape of the island of Ikaria, Greece. Engraved on each cufflink is an image of Icarus falling, from the legend. The other two are to commemorate and individual's time in Marine Force Recon, and a trip to London. These come with a box from pasteboard. If you prefer a wooden box, like the one shown, I can, of course, make one for you.

  • Long-time member

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

  • Great service

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

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.

    The ring holder arrived this week. I found the quality of workmanship to be exceptional. I would have no problem seeking future work when needed. This was my first experience with Custom Made. I'll be coming back for more.

    Absolutely beautiful creation. I never could have imagined it would turn out so well. Jim was great to work with, he took my idea and helped me to make it better with well thought out improvements to the concept. Great Deal
