Pepper Mill Knob Type #2202

6.4cm x 20.3cm tall

Maple wood

Using:

Turn the top clockwise only when grinding pepper. Turning it backwards will reduce the life of the mill’s grinding mechanism.

Filling:

Remove the top knob by turning counterclockwise. Once removed, lift off the top of the mill to access the spice chamber. We recommend filling the chamber only 3/4 full for best performance.

We recommend storing your mills in a dry environment. Avoid exposing your mill to extreme heat or extreme cold.

To allow for an easier tightening adjustment to the finest grind possible, turn the unit upside down before tightening to eliminate the opportunity for peppercorns to catch inside the mechanism which could prevent complete closure.

Cleaning:

Wipe clean with a soft damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use alcohol, strong detergents, abrasives, or solvents as they can damage the finish.

Allan Cusworth's first exposure to woodturning was in high school in Cobourg, Ontario, but it wasn't until moving to British Columbia in the early 1990s that Allan took a serious interest in the craft. He currently belongs to two local woodturners’ guilds as well as the American Association of Woodturners. He is recognized for his platters, bowls, and engraved pens, as well as his unique hollow vessels and wedding goblets. He takes specific interest in fine buffing his pieces to create a shiny finish. 

Allan's goal is to make each piece of work unique by embellishing wood grain patterns and natural wood colouration. His platters and bowls are generally finished with food-safe materials and are meant to be used. However, many become display pieces when purchased by his international customers. His style is constantly changing as he looks for that special piece of wood he can transform into a beautiful piece of functional art.
