Local Markets and Fairs

 The next Clarksville Commons Farmers Market is this coming Saturday, May 10th from 9 to 1. The weather forecast is looking great. We have some  great new pieces to fit just about every budget. If you have some time, stop by and say hello. 

About Me

I have been working with wood for over 40 years.  

I  started building for family and friends. Since retiring from academia and moving to Maryland I now also build for customers like you who want unique and lovely wood items. 

Wood Working Philosophy

Wood Working Philosophy

"Each flitch, each board, each plank can have only one ideal use.  the woodworker, applying a thousand skills, must find that ideal use and then shape the wood to realize it's true potential."

                                                                                                                      ~George Nakashima

How I Work

Wood Working Philosophy

Wood is fascinating to work with. The different species all have unique colors, hardness and grain patterns.  Wood "moves" with changes in ambient temperature and humidity. This unpredictability makes working with wood both challenging and joyful in terms of structure and aesthetics. I love the process of deciding which wood species to combine.

Customizing

If you want a custom piece, I will work closely with you to choose the best wood species and design for your project.  If you want, I will send you pictures as we work through the different stages  of the design and build to make sure you're happy with how it looks.

Wood Burning by Alison

We can customize most pieces with wood burning.  This would be an additional cost.   We have some pieces in stock and in the gallery that have hand burned artwork and/or lettering.

Finishes

Over the past two years, I have transitioned to finishes that are very low  VOC, which means  that when they cure (or dry) they don't off gas harmful fumes. The ones I use are also food safe.
