A big ash table commission I made a while ago. The legs are charred ash. It’s massive. I do like big tables. Hubs. Lots of important stuff happens around them. And after desert it can be cleared for table tennis (As per the official rules of table tennis, the game is played on a 2.74 x 1.53-metre table. But you are allowed set the net up if it is not this actual size too). If you want one get in touch.

I do enjoy the feeling of …thinks it’s mainly relief? when finishing off a commission. What’s done is done, it is what it is, on to the new thing and various other cliches. This pair of Wedge benches are made from Irish Walnut. From tree to finished piece all on site. Now to be boxed and shipped far away. #walnut #forest #furniture #relief #bench #irishcraft #greenwoodworking #liveauthentic #thatsdarling #slowliving #livefolk #permaculture #madeinireland #woodcraft #futureheirloom #handcrafted #ireland #wicklow

Simple walnut stool with cleft chestnut legs. …I put up the lights (thanks for the lights @jenwalshdesign) and set the camera and downloaded Lightroom (thanks for the pointers @tommyjpurdy) and edited adjusted the somethings….and while it wasn’t that hard in the end it was still much more difficult than making the stool. Still. A start. #studio #photography #stool #computersareannoying #irishcraft #greenwoodworking #slowliving #livefolk #madeinireland #woodcraft #futureheirloom #handcrafted #furniture #ireland #wicklow

Spent a nice easy day in the woods recently. Tea, fire, tools and bant. It was a pilot ‘green social prescribing’ workshop and was filmed too. Hopefully a more well known term in the future. #hse #wicklowpartnership #menshealth #tea #diy #nature #make #irishcraft #greenwoodworking #slowliving #livefolk #letsgosomewhere #permaculture #madeinireland #woodcraft #ireland #wicklow

Just finished this Sweet Chestnut gate riven from some local coppiced Chestnut. Splitting out the components retains more of the strength and durability than sawn planks. As a wood it’s got so many uses and grows great here. It should last ages outdoors without any treatment #sweet #chestnut #gate #cottage #riven #irishcraft #greenwoodworking #thatsdarling #nothingisordinary #slowliving #livefolk #permaculture #madeinireland #woodcraft #handcrafted #ireland #wicklow

Last week Lucy,Izzy and Anna built a tiny home for Lucy’s pet sheep. (They named it ‘The Anizucy Hotel and Sbaa’). From not much building experience at all they took on the project and took over the woodland workshop. Starting with designing it to learning how to layout, source materials, use power tools and the principles of building a cabin. All scalable skills. Then built it in sections using mostly salvaged materials. We then transported it and assembled it in situ on a windy wicklow hillside. Not bhaaaad at all at all. #diy #sheep #skills #empowerment #building #wicklow #shelter #tools #slowliving #livefolk #letsgosomewhere #permaculture #madeinireland #woodcraft #ireland #wicklow

It’s so often sad to see big trees fall. If Eunice has blown down some meaniful trees to you do get in touch. I can make them into something that can last for generations more.

It’s often more interesting and satisfying (and cheaper) to fix something than to replace it. It’s like the process creates a new unique object. It’s just a gateway. Also the left hand gate post was leaning in (probably from city folk climbing over the gate in the middle 😤). I cut a chestnut wedge and whacked it in at the base. It acts as a basic gear. And I am now awaiting a noble prize. #billsgates #kintsugi #fix #reuse #diy #irishcraft #greenwoodworking #liveauthentic #slowliving #livefolk #permaculture #ireland #wicklow

Been working on my gluts. Wooden wedges to split logs. The fibres have some give and in ways work better than metal wedges. I used to lose them so quickly on the forest floor. The new pink paint is a perfect antidote to this. #doyouevenlift #gear #wedge #handtools #forest #pink #woodwork #irishcraft #greenwoodworking #liveauthentic #nothingisordinary #slowliving #livefolk #permaculture #madeinireland #woodcraft #handcrafted #sticks #ireland #wicklow
