This is a large salad bowl, commissioned for a person across the water. It is 380mm (15in) in diameter. Finished with six coats of food safe oil, this should serve well for a long time. The wood is a lovely figured sycamore.

This is a lovely fruit bowl, 289mm in diameter, and made from a giant redwood tree, also known as the sequoia. The tree came down in a storm earlier in the year in the National Botanic Gardens and I was lucky to get a few pieces from it.

This is a wall hanging of an imaginary planetary system.
The cosmic background was painted by my artist friend and collaborator, Fiona Roche.
The planets are all exact hemispheres, turned from a variety of woods, which include cherry, beech, walnut, damson, laburnum and pine.
This will form part of our club's annual exhibition (Fingal Woodturners) at the Ashtown Visitors' Centre in the Phoenix Park for the entire month of August.
All visitors welcome and there will be at least one of our turners present each day.

This is an artistic segmented piece, basically a deconstruction of a turned ring. It is made from maple, iroko and walnut. The ring is 250mm in diameter. I call it "Resonance" as it suggests two forms communicating through shape and proportion.

This is a lidded goblet, made from 53 separately cut pieces of wood. This type of wood turning is called segmented turning. It requires precision cutting, assembly and a lot of time and patience.

Re-cycling: these are off-cuts from a counter-top, which was being replaced. The wood is laminated iroko. These shallow bowls were finished with a food-safe oil and would be ideal for nibbles.

I should credit someone else for the inspiration for this design of a candle holder, but cannot recall his/her name. I sketched it out as a possible project over a year ago. Overall height, without the candle, is about 150mm. It's made from scot's pine and ebonised. I will probably make a larger one in natural wood finish.....yew, laburnum or spalted beech would be atttractive.
