Christmas is just around the corner!

I have a NEW WEBSITE! Check it out by visiting www.knottycreations.ca. You can even place orders for my products online.

This was birdhouse week in the workshop.

One can find bud vases in any pile of sticks

Coloured platter approximately 2" x 18"

Salad bowls are approximately 4" x 11" and turned from walnut and cherry.

Burls are fun turning but urns look nice as well.

And to go burl hunting, you need a burl hunting companion.

Burls make for some interesting pieces.

Theses roughed out pieces will be ready to turn in August. I check the moisture content using a moisture meter.

To speed the drying process the burl is rough turned to a wall thickness of approximately 1 inch. Then it will take a couple of months to reach the desired moisture content.
