ecided to try his hand at creating
his own didgeridoos We now have a selection of traditional and non-traditional
didgeridoos, and
as Rob is a player and maker of didgeridoos, Rob has
experimented with his own .creation
of this wonderful instrument. Ask Rob to play some of
them so you can make your selection
and get value for money!
In the showroom, there is a wide
range of project components for
woodturners: pen parts, pot pourri
lids, lazy Susan's and weather
instruments, as well as a full

components.
Also on display and for sale is an
extensive range of individually crafted
timber gifts.
These include
hand crafted timber clocks, which
in themselves are well worth the
