Handcrafted by Dave McCoy
A retired geologist with ten years at the lathe, Dave brings a trained eye for natural structure and material properties to his woodturning practice. His work centers on bowls and candlesticks, with a focus on exploring how different species of wood--their grain, figure and density--respond to varied woodturning techniques. For Dave, the workshop is simply geology by other means: always searching for what the material wants to reveal. Dave lives in Carrboro.
