Harry Potter Style Wand
This is a wand made for a person to give to his wife, who is a devout Harry Potter fan. She requested one with a Unicorn Hair at the core, and he wanted replicas of her wedding band bracketing the grip. He also wanted a display case that could hang on the wall, or sit on a shelf. She wanted a "wand care kit" to maintain her wand. The grip is cocobolo and the wand itself is hard curly maple. If you examine it closely you can see the Unicorn Hair protruding from both ends.

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.
