A long dice vault, made from pink ivory. An exotic wood which is naturally vivid pink in colour. It is a rare wood, which I only use when I am able to source it ethically through my trusted suppliers

A small dice cup made from padauk. An orangey wood. Sat on top of a blank which is very similar to the one it was made from

A dice offering bowl. A bowl with a large rim featuring individual spaces for the seven dice in a standard polyhedral set. The outside and rim of the bowl have been charred so they are a burned black. The inside of the bowl is light ash coloured

A painting handle as used by David Dolliver. It has a round base, which tapers to a narrow neck. A short cylinder head is placed on it using magnets. A small model is then affixed to the head

I have some designs and products which I like to keep in regular stock. Like my painting handles, which have proven popular enough that for the first time ever I'm outsourcing some of my production to another UK based wood turner.

But my favourite things are always one off statement pieces

It's me! A selfie taken on a very misty walk up a hill. My hair and slightly shaggy beard are being blown by the wind

My stand at UKGE 2024. A gaming table with crossed legs is in the foreground. The vaulted area of the table is half uncovered showing it's functionality. There is a table to one side with other products such as dice vaults and trays on display

Using and old pistol grip saw to cut dovetail shaped splines across the corner of a dice rolling tray

A picture of my TV. On the screen is Johnny Chiodini running a game of Dungeons and Dragons for Oxventure Wyrdwood. Infront of them is a GM screen made by me for the show. It has a black frame and elm panels. The elm was selected specifically for this as it had a lot of swirling patterns

I've picked up a whole heap of new followers lately.
So to introduce myself.
Hi! I'm Pete.

I make nerd stuff from wood.
You might have seen some of it on Oxventure Wyrdwood.

I focus on high quality craftsmanship and sustainable materials.

All this wood is hot. But you requested we ask questions, so I shall try:
How do you make wood this hot?

So last night I dreamt I was pouring candles in a train station and I was indignant that the biggest obstacle to this was not having my wick centerers
