I am a retired music educator and a woodworker. I am combining my interests by offering conducting batons, music stand shelves, and a limited number of hand made scrollsaw baskets.
CONDUCTING BATONS
Currently I am offering conducting batons with a fiberglass shaft. Please take a look at the Baton page for more information
Music Stand Shelves
I am also offering a line of music stand shelves to meet the needs of instrumental musicians and conductors. My design is patent pending. The music stand shelf page has more information.
Scrollsaw Baskets
I craft these baskets from walnut, ash, maple, bloodwood, padauk and other hardwoods. I anticipate prices to be in the $145- $350 range. They make wonderful gifts and will last many lifetimes.
