Michael Malys Handcrafted Maple Tools for Spinners

These tools are made from maple, reclaimed whenever possible to do our part in helping the environment and to keep our prices down.  They come unfinished, so you can stain them to match your decor or if you prefer the natural look, let them darken naturally.  Because these are handcrafted, yours may differ slightly from the one shown in the picture. 
 
All prices include shipping to the lower 48 states.
 
Michael is a retired worker from an oil refinery who loves working with wood.  Three years ago, he moved to New Mexico from Pennsylvania for his wife's health.  She is disabled from fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis and heart problems.  We live in a small peaceful town of 8 people in the foothills of the Sacramento Mountains of New Mexico, where the men still tip their hats to the ladies and everyone shakes hands when they meet.  Though small, our town boasts of two churches, a post office, fire department, and a community center where we gather regularly for pot lunch dinners.
