Wild Woodenware Finish and Spatulas

Wild Woodenware Finish is a mineral oil & beeswax based blend designed to keep wooden bowls, spatulas, and cutting boards in good condition. The beeswax used comes from Maine bees and the lavender scented version uses organic lavender essential oil. The lavender version can be used to finish drawers to scent clothing as well. Spatulas are available for kitchen use in long or regular handle lengths. Rice spoons are available with regular short handle or long handle for stirring stews. Contact Wild Cherry Woodworks for pricing on all products. Most are in stock ready for shipment.

Custom fitted firearm carry case



Custom carry case for a Wild West Guns .457Magnum Master Guide rifle. Fitted sections for optic, two pieces of rifle, and a box of ammo. Case constructed of Peruvian walnut with a cocobolo inlay. All hardware is solid brass hand mortised. Spline miters strengthen the case and add an interesting detail. .500 caliber bullets act as "feet" when case is standing. Inside of top is leather from this client's grandfather's tack shop. I try and incorporate as many unique details into my firearm cases and displays as possible, as these are very personal items to the owners.

Nightstand in Peruvian Walnut & Birdseye Maple



This nightstand has a gentle flair of the legs and one handy drawer. All mortise and tenon construction with dovetailed drawer. The birdseye maple had a lot of figure,
which is not shown well in this photograph.

Peruvian Walnut & Birdseye Maple Huntboard



This huntboard was crafted using Peruvian Walnut and Birdseye Maple. There is walnut inlayed into the doors and sides and the back is also finished in the frame and panel style so the furniture can be displayed in the middle of a room to divide two spaces.

Caleb chair & Ottoman



This chair and ottoman is a collaboration with Alfred Upholstery of Waterboro, ME. We designed the chair together, I crafted the frames, and they upholstered the whole affair.
They do very professional work and the chair is quite comfortable.
The wood is cherry with a natural finish.

Tiger maple & cherry armoir/dresser

This piece was displayed at the Fryeburg Fair 2006. It is constructed of bookmatched tiger maple panels with cherry frames, legs, and surfaces. Mortise and tenon and dovetail joinery were used throughout.
