Whats New

 
 
 Wow! Where does the time go too?  Sadly we had to cancel the craft fair in July, this due to the drain gurgling up water onto the floor, this would have been too dangerous for our clients, so appologies all around.  We have accepted an invite to display and demonstrate at the Scottish Mobility Roadshow  17th & 18th September (see main page) so I am looking forward to seeing all our regulars at the show.  We were invited to display at the Scottich Woodworking show but due to prior commitments (I am flying away) we had to decline but as you see we are supporting it in every way we can.

Friday 21st May 2010 we attended the Spinal Injuries Scotland awards lunch, the scoff was fantastic and a great bunch of folk attended.  We were honoured to have made the awards for the third year running and they were well received.

 

I am over the moon that we have been asked to make the awards for 2011 and I already have my thinking cap on, although it has to be said that my head is empty of ideas (nothing new there then).  The workshop has been busy and we have had a few new members, which is great.

DRAW SETS

 
 

The Draws come in a myriad of shapes and sizes, they can be made from a solid piece of wood or as I prefer from laminated pieces.  I saw the large bits of wood into 1" thick planks, then plane them smooth before gluing them back into a large piece of wood, this way I believe the wood is more stable.

Aurora Borealis


Aurora is the Goddess of the dawn, solar winds ruffle luminous curtains of magnetic activity in the earth's northern lights, that shimmering effect is reflected in this Draw Set.  The wood is Laburnum, which is native to the mountains of southern Europe. Quite a rare wood in the UK, the heartwood is a dark chocolate brown with buttery yellow sapwood, all parts of the tree are poisonous and care must be taken when working the wood, the handles are crafted from Spalted Beech.  The wood for these draws came from Kings Park Glasgow.

 TSUNAMI


These, sometimes huge geologically induced oceanic swells can cause such devastation and yet they are a beautiful representation of the Earths power which has inspired the design of these draws.  The pattern in the wood is caused by spalting, after the tree falls to the ground, it picks up bacteria and fungal spore, these eat at the wood and that is the lines of colour you can see, the spore needs moisture to remain alive, as the wood dries then they all die leaving a stunning pattern in the wood fibre. When working the wood care must be taken not to inhale the dust as the spores are quite toxic when being worked on.  All our wood comes from within 50 miles of the Glasgow area. The wood for the handles was a gift and they are made from re-claimed Ebony (not from Glasgow)

Mollusc

This draw set was made by Isaac Curran.  The Mollusc comes in a huge variety of shapes but many of them are streamline so that it is easier to hang on to small rocks and crevasis which has inspired the design of these draws.  The wood used is Rippled Ash , which has been  recovered from the South of Glasgow where it had been fallen. The wood for the handles was a gift and they are made from re-claimed Ebony (not from Glasgow) The lining is a deep red colour and is called "flocking"
