Was making boxes from pallets to use as Christmas hampers. Needed to make some smaller so instead of shrinking all dimensions, I just effectively chopped them lower making them trays. A happy accident. Gave them a tilt just to make them a little different and made a batch for presents.

Many moons ago I dabbled with Bullroarers. Got the notion again so made this from an off cut of oak paneling. Felt too plain so ended up carving it with a feather relief. Liked it so much I made some more! They sound lovely.

A commission using a broken slate hearthstone from the owners house. Built into the bank and supported with stone from a local quarry. Big enough for three people.

A gift. Made from wood off my local beach. Wanted to make it in a very different pose but couldn't get the pieces to work right. Ended up letting the pieces go where they wanted and it all came together much easier. Eyes are button off cuts.

Commission from Raggedy.

Had to move out of the old one due to the owner moving. Got this lickety split though. Bigger and roomier. Not for free anymore but its worth it.
