Handcrafted using wood, metal and recycled items, I love to create unusual and sometimes unique pieces for you and your home, or gifts for those close to you.
Following redundancy in 2016 from a large corporate environment I desperately needed to feel a sense of achievement to my working day once again, like I had enjoyed when I first left school and completed an apprenticeship in construction. I therefore became a self-employed handyman for a few years and during that time also started ‘carbon64 craftwork’, my small handicraft business. Moving from Leicestershire to Scotland in late 2020, I joined Cowal Open Studios in 2023.
The work I create is all self taught, barring those fundamental lessons learnt many years ago, and the projects I undertake are varied. The Gallery here shows a small sample of those projects completed during the past few years and I have also included a brief description alongside each to give you a flavour of where my ideas come from.
Whilst I carry a some stock of the smaller items should you be interested in buying, my more complex work is generally ‘one-off’ unique pieces or made to order. I am also happy to discuss and complete commission work just for you.

This year, I am very excited to share my work alongside Kirsty and Chris at a new venue for me, Argyll Abode on Hillfoot Street, Dunoon.
Please get in touch if you have any questions or see anything of interest.
Take care and I hope to see you soon.
