• Are you looking for a coupon code to buy my software? You can get one from lots of 3rd party sites but they won't work. My software never goes on sale and has never been discounted. The only coupon codes that are given is when I give a club presentation and I offer a discount to the attendees. Other than that, everyone pays the same price.
  • Due to a scam attack, the gallery is temporarily turned off. I am working to get this fixed but I have some other things that are higher prioriity. I do hope to have it back soon and there shouldn't be any changes to the content. At least, that is the hope.

Appearances can be deceiving!

In the attached photos of a bowl apart from the walnut base and the padauk/sapele lamination it is entirely made of maple :).

Yes it is torrefied eastern maple. Lee Valley Tools use it to make tool handles, especially planes. One of the local LV stores was selling offcuts. It machines, sands and finishes beautifully! Sanding to 600 grit with no finish even brings out a very nice luster. It can be a little brittle so very sharp tools are needed for turning.
