This board can be made in pretty much any size you wish, with or without feet, engraving, or a perimeter groove. They start at 10" X 16" X 1.5". The addition of a walnut piece at the groove is a nice touch on this board. Engraving can be done around the edge of the board, or on the surface as you wish. This particular board was made for a Birthday Present and included a nursery rhyme around the edge and an Initial with Motto on the surface. The rhyme is: Chop chop, Chipity chop Cut off the bottom, cut off the top What we have left we put in the pot Chop chop, Chippity chop.

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 All wood toasting glasses for bride and groomI loved working with Jim! What a talented, kind man. He kept me posted the entire time and I felt like I was working with someone I had known a long time. I asked Jim to make my daughters toasting glasses for her wedding.
My only regret was not discussing size. I felt they turned out too small (but that's maybe because I drink wine from a HUGE glass). BUT my daughter loved them and is so happy with the results! That's all a mother could ask for, right?!
I have to mention that upon my concerns I mentioned to JIm, he was willing to (without cost to me) correct my issue and make me new glasses. But that was not necessary, due to my daughters delight with her toasting glasses.
Thank you Jim for making these special gifts for our daughters wedding!!
