2 July 2014 greg 1 Comment
This past weekend, over the Canada Day weekend, I was fortunate to be able to set up my medieval merchant booth at the local Society for Creative Anachronism event The War of the Trillium as put on by the local Continue Reading ››

Spring Cleaning – Wooden Bowls and Boxes

10 June 2014 greg Leave a comment
Now that it's getting into mid June of 2014, and I haven't actually posted anything in close to six months, I think it's high time for a new post! Over the past few months, I've admittedly been fairly absent from my own web site. That's not a formula for success now, is it? It's been a … Continue Reading ››

Simple Maple Bowl

20 October 2013 greg Leave a comment
Today I decided to get working on a new simple maple bowl. I haven't turned anything in over a month (or more!) now and I was starting to get a bit twitchy for going so long without doing anything new on the lathe. I have been working on a few wooden boxes, but even those … Continue Reading ››

Thanks for a great day at the Peterborough Folk Festival! For anyone who talked with me, looked at my bowls and especially for those who supported my art by buying a piece or two... thank you!

Cherry Bowls Part 2

11 August 2013 greg Leave a comment
I neglected to post these a few days ago like I said I would. But here they are... The cherry bowls before they're going to have their hemp seed oil finish applied. After this photo was taken, but before the oil was applied, I noticed that two of the bowls actually did have a rather … Continue Reading ››

Cherry Wood Update

2 August 2013 greg Leave a comment
I finally managed to get the time to finish turning the cherry wood blanks that have been my current focus. Out of the original board, I ended up with 8 bowls out of the original 10 blanks that were cut. One had a crack in the wood that was hidden until I was turning it. … Continue Reading ››

Cherry Bowls July 2013

19 July 2013 greg Leave a comment
In preparation for the afternoon I'll be set up at the Peterborough Folk Festival, I've started work on a new set of bowls. From the wood that I picked up at Century Mill last month, I've finally started cutting and working them. These will be for sale at the Festival. I'm not … Continue Reading ››

Century Mill Lumber

20 June 2013 greg Leave a comment
Finally made it down to Century Mill Lumber in Stouffville today. I had been told it was an excellent place for all kinds of wood and I wasn't let down at all. There was so much I wanted, but I needed to be realistic (and besides, there's only so much you can fit … Continue Reading ››

Wood Working Finishes – Update

27 March 2013 greg Leave a comment
In an earlier post regarding wood finishes, I had stated that I'd be using either a polyurethane for a modern finish or a linseed oil/beeswax blend for a more traditional look. Well, I lied. Or at least changed my mind. From this point, unless otherwise requested for a commission or for a very specific purpose, I'll be … Continue Reading ››
