western red cedar
This massive bowl will make quite a statement on a dining table or in an entryway. Turned on a lathe out of a lovely piece of western red cedar.
Care Instructions: if needed, clean using soap and water sparingly, and treat periodically with beeswax and food-safe mineral oil.
Chris Mannall has been a woodworker for almost 50 years. After purchasing his first house in 1973, he realized that investing in some tools would enable him to make some household furniture and other items to make better use of limited funds. Since then, he has produced a wide variety of pieces, including tables, chairs, bookcases, bowls, and platters, etc. He moved to Nanaimo, retiring after 20 years in the aircraft industry.
Chris currently tends to concentrate on cheeseboards, live-edge charcuterie boards, and bowls up to 18” in diameter. Multi-sided bowls (square, hexagonal, octagonal, etc.) and lidded pots are among his latest endeavours. He is always looking for ways to create unique pieces. Although he does use some imported lumber, much of the wood he uses is obtained locally from fallen trees and other sustainable sources. Pieces for use in contact with food are finished with food-safe products. He has been an active member of the Mid-Island Woodworker’s Guild for several years.
