Barley twist legs for a desk/table.
Communion trays and handles - still to be attached!
 This large disk (redgum) was turned and eventually became the base for a coffee table.
 Imagine how many people you could seat around a table made from this giant redwood slab! Hospitality double plus! The Lucas Mill is peeling these slabs off our giant redwood logs. These are all spoken for, but if you have an interest in slabs, give us a call. We may be able to be of assistance!
We have a new service! We have quite a comprehensive metalworking workshop and might be able to be of assistance to you on a number of projects. Newly added to our "Services" page is information about our ability to machine custom tooling. Recent turns include steel parts for engines, bores, pulleys, nylon runners, aluminium shafts and more.
For some applications our customers prefer curved craftwood to bendyply. Pete assembles a curved template to a given radius, glues a number of sheets of craftwood together and puts them in the template. When the glue is dry the craftwood comes out of the template having been bent into a beautiful curve. Here are two curves joined together to make a 180 degree semicircle for the front of a counter.   Pete used his pantograph (also known as his seat saddling machine) to make these curved drawer fronts. He later used his vaccum system to glue a lovely book-matched veneer to the fronts.   The folks from Wild Trout Downunder and the Gordon Hat Shoppe kindly sent us this photo from their store in Gordon, Victoria (off M8 between Ballarat and Melbourne). It features a pedestal we turned for them and one of the many hat blocks we have made for them. They design and make some fantastic hats for both men and women. Check out their range at www.tweedwild.com.au.  Pete did a beautiful job veneering these curved counters for a UFS Dispensary. He can veneer all sorts of shapes and sizes.  |
