I enjoy both woodworking and woodturning in my shop in Delaplane, VA.  I turn high-end pens using figured domestic and exotic hardwoods.  As a recognized expert on old hand planes, I teach hand plane restoration and hand plane usage classes at two Virginia Woodcraft stores.   Starting this fall I will be co-teaching a series of classes on the use of hand tools in woodworking.

I have been working with wood — carving, furniture building and woodturning — for over 30 years.  My focus on woodcarving is a style called “Chip Carving” which is a decorative style of carving.  I incorporate my interests in these various mediums into my woodworking pieces. 

My work has been featured in the book, The Art of Chip Carving, by Wayne Barton, the leading chip carver in the .  I teach ‘Fundamentals of Woodworking’, ‘Building a Shaker Table’ and ‘Build a Period-style Keepsake Box’ classes at the Woodcraft store in Leesburg, VA and chip carving at the North Bennett Street School in Boston, MA.  I  am a former president of both the Northern Virginia Carvers and the Woodturners of the Virginias in Mt. Jackson, VA.
