The Wood Dom

IT person that took on wood turning. Here you will see photo's of my work; most completed and some in progress. I developed a love of wood turning 2015 and have dove in. From pens to bowls along with men's shaving sets and bottle toppers. While I do enjoy working with exotic woods of late I have been using more recycled and reclaimed woods in my work. To see all my work visit my Etsy shop at: https://thewooddom.etsy.com

YOUR ART ON TUMBLR IS BEING USED TO TRAIN AI!

The setting that prevents your work being used to train AI models is turned off by default! I had no idea about this until now! Artists, go to your settings, click “visibility”, and turn on this setting! Protect your work!

Go to your blog (you have to do this for each individual blog) and the visibility tab

It's this last option here

It's been a long week and am SO ready for the weekend. My plan is to spend some time in the wood shop and maybe go thrifting.

What are you up to this weekend?

One thing I love about where my shop is located is that it is near woods. So I never know what kind of wildlife I may see. This Cicada was hanging out on the door one morning, even when I opened the door and went in the Cicada stayed put.
