I create handmade, high quality wood pieces (and sometimes, crafts using other mediums such as natural stone or acrylic) that connect to people on an emotional level. Each piece is meticulously designed to look and feel like an art piece. I have always adored art, and have an underlining mission to incorporate my knowledge and skills into wood turning. With my videos, I hope to inspire and encourage others while promoting wood turning, experimentation, and safety. Please stay safe at all times!

Good tip. I have a fairly translucent blank that I cast, so I'm going to try this this weekend

[@spwoodart]

Thank you Owen. Let me know how it goes.

[@CommercialForest]

That’s a really smart idea💡 A quick and simple finishing touch like that is well worth it. Once you spot the subtle outline of a brass tube it will be the first thing you notice every time you see the pen 🖊 👍

[@spwoodart]

Thank you and for watching. Totally agree, just taking the time to add a quick coloring to the tube makes a huge difference. Thanks again.
