Rotational Matters
Wood Turning
Welcome to Rotational Matters Woodturning
I create useful works of art from wood through woodturning. Using the lathe means my creations are a variation on a cylinder shape from bowls (boxes in woodturner's lingo), and coasters, to spindle based objects like dibbers (planting sticks) and muddlers (to mix your drinks). My workshop in located in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. I usually work with local Maritime Canadian wood.

2026 Events for Rotational Matters
I have finished the five shows for the 2025 Christmas Craft show period and am making plans for the 2026 Craft show schedule. If you wish to buy something you see here online, please contact me at turner@rotational-matters.ca
Many people are curious about the process of woodturning. I have made two videos of me making a beech bowl and a biscuit cutter so you can see some of the process. These are not meant to be instructional videos.
News from the Shop:
January 2026
This month I got into the shop around relative visits and cold days. I made a couple of big bowls and I was working on trees, trying to figure out a reasonable method to achieve curved branches.
