Jim Kephart Woodturning Gallery
The following are categories of photos corresponding to the types of work I do. Most items are customers' designs or reproduction of broken, maimed or missing turnings. Most items do not directly reflect my design sense, only my ability to make whatever walks into the shop.
- Architectural Elements
- Architectural Elements consist of turned items including columns, balusters, knewl posts and post caps.
- Specialty Items
-
Specialty Items include turnings of lamps, prototype, small or miniature, components for other artists' creations, or just strange things people want made.
- Furniture Parts
-
I make a lot of parts for furniture. Some are reproductions for furmiture restorers or individuals wishing to repair and finish items themselves.
I also do a lot of work for furniture makers doing limited quantity custom furniture. These include items like turned legs and split turnings to be applied to furniture.
- Artistic Woodturnings
- In my earlier turning years I did significantly more purely artistic items including bowls and vessels. These reflect some of my own designs and creations although most of these are not as recent as my other work.
- Shop Capacities
-
These pictures are not as much about the turned items as the general capabilities of myself and the shop I created.
