Adam Howard
 A
long-time resident of upper East Tennessee, I've been creating fine American
craft for many years. An experienced turner, and boxmaker, I enjoy
working with only the finest timbers that nature has to offer. Trees
and the timbers that they produce are beautiful. It is our responsibility
as craftsmen and artists to enhance and display that inherent beauty,
while honoring the desires of our clients. I only work with fine
timbers that are hand-selected for each of my projects. A project
is not worth doing unless it is with the finest materials. If
you would like something made special just for you, don't hesitate
to ask. I will ask lots of questions to be sure you get what you desire.
 I
also believe that we must do our best to minimize waste. Only a very small
percentage of my original timbers end up as waste. Cutoffs are recycled
into small turning projects such as pens, bottle stoppers, and small bowls.
Sawdust from my shop is composted for use as a renewable resource. When
you buy one of my items, you can be sure that parts of the same timber
are being used in another project or given away to other wood artisans.
The scraps that I throw away are truly too small to work with. Any
other approach would be a waste of fine timber.
Woodworking is a journey that we take through life, and the destination
is never fully achieved. Every artisan, from novice to master, can learn
something new every day. If you are a beginner, please feel free to contact
me for help. I'd be honored to help you on your journey.
Shipping and Return Policy
There are many shipping options, but for most items, I ship
by Fedex Ground. For pens, I will often ship US Postal. Shipping charges
are added automatically in the checkout process. For very large orders,
I normally offer free shipping. I will occasionally give quantity discounts,
so contact me if you would like multiples of a single item.
Upon shipping, I carefully inspect every piece for quality
and function. However, if an item you have purchased turns out to be defective
or does not function properly, I will be happy to replace it, or offer
you a refund upon it's return. I am unable to accept returns on any item
unless there is a specific problem.
For custom orders, I require a 50% deposit before I can
put the project on the schedule. The deposit is not refundable once I
have purchased materials.
