Wood Eye Candy - Take a look: Update: website added
For those woodworkers & turners I thought you might enjoy our latest creation. A lighthouse pepper grinder made with Maple, Padauk (Africa) & Black Palm top sitting on a maple burl cap from the pacific northwest.
Turning_gal and I are headed to Michigan in a few weeks for two art shows, I have several of these made, even if they don't sell it is great eye candy to bring people in the booth.

We will be in a small town just outside Detroit, Northville, on June 16/17/18, the following weekend we will be in Grand Haven. In early August we will be back in Michigan in Suttons Bay.

You won't be far from me being in Northville for the show. Make sure you bring your camera when you go to Grand Haven.
I'll see if I'm free that weekend

If it hasn’t sold, I’ll buy it
That’s a perfect thank you present for some family friends whom are graciously taking my family out on their boat to spread our fathers ashes off the coast from Marblehead next month

Gorgeous work Sir.
I know what goes into projects like this. I hope to turn some pepper mills in the near future.
Here are a few we've done. It's a fun hobby.
