Toasting Glasses In Katalox (Wedding And 5th Year Anniversary)
Glasses turned on a lathe from a single block of Ambrosia Maple to be used for the toasts at the celebration of a fifth anniversary. These glasses are turned in a traditional style and are fully functional. The finish on them is walnut oil and carnauba wax on the exterior and mineral oil and beeswax on the interior to make them completely usable. They stand roughly six inches high and two and one-half inches across and, following the tradition of the Irish Wedding Goblet, each pair is made from a single solid block, both cut from the same timber. Price includes engraving. ————————————————————— KEYWORDS: wood glasses, wooden glasses, hand turned glasses, lathe turned glasses, fifth anniversary, 5th anniversary, anniversary, Irish wedding glasses, Irish glasses, toasting glasses, wooden toasting glasses, wooden anniversary glasses, wooden fifth year glasses, medieval glasses, medieval wedding, renaissance glasses, renaissance festival, wedding glasses, wedding toast, wedding toasting glasses, marriage glasses, marriage toast

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.

For Wooden Bocci Ball Set5.0The bocci ball set is absolutely beautifully well made. I am extremely satisfied with the product. Even though Jim had to take care of some personal family matters, he came through with a completed product delivered in time for Christmas. I will most definitely use his services again.

For Ed and Suzie Goose5.0Jim Barbour is a total "five star" Craftsman! My review cannot begin to describe how pleased I am with both Jim, as a professional, and his incredible work. It is a delight and honor to work with him. He created, with insightful suggestions, exactly what my mind had conjured. I wanted a pair of anniversary dice crafted in California redwood nestled in an engraved box to commemorate our special day. Jim's creation is exquisite. He responded within a day to my initial proposal, with incredible suggestions. He understood exactly what I wanted immediately, and offered to complete it at a most fair price. All of his responses were more than timely, and the project was completed way ahead of schedule. His creation arrived in an extremely carefully packaged box. It was obvious that he took great care to ensure its safe arrival. He let me know when he sent it and when I could expect to receive it. Based upon my experience with Jim, I can't wait to think of other projects to do with Custom Made. I have recommended him to my friends. I especially look forward to working with Jim again. My experience was amazing!
Thank you, Jim, and Custom Made!!
With so many thanks,
