Turned Back Timber was formed in early 2018 with the intention to learn some of the hard-earned skills the previous generations of Woodworkers & Machinists discovered, and with aspirations to pass those skills on to others wanting to get involved in the craft.

While there are items for sale in my store that are purely decorative you'll also find many functional pieces including food-safe fruit and salad bowls, wooden pens, unique jewellery, and kids toys.
