The other things people ask us for. Prices are as listed in our shop.

Good to know

Hidden metal costs a blade

Nails, screws or stones in the timber damage the band saw blade. A £72 resharpening charge applies, so please tell us about any known fixings before we start.

Longer milling is booked ahead

Anything past the minimum slot is arranged in advance rather than walk in. Give us a ring and we will find you a time.

Talk to Garth about the finish

Very heavily figured timber or super small sections can need special attention, so it is worth discussing species and target finish first.
