Added a juice groove and well in the lower right corner. Rounded the corners as well. This one will be ready soon.

Don’t mind the background too much, you’re getting a glimpse into my dirty shop 🤣. This was a proof of concept to see if I could pull it off. This is face grain and when I recreate it I will make it end grain. I think it turned out exceptionally well.

Side note. We get a fair amount of requests to put copyrighted materials on our products. We have to politely refuse. We are happy to work with you on public domain artwork or your own artwork.

This is a first for us, we are offering a 10% discount on our adult sized rolling pins for the Memorial Day weekend. The sale starts now and goes until Monday, May 25th 2026.

We have family in for a wedding this weekend as so we will not be monitoring our socials as normal. We will try to answer question as we can, but please be patient.

We have quite a few rolling pins ready to ship, but none will ship before Tuesday at the earliest due to the holiday.

We hope everyone has a great start to the summer season, fun with family and friend and awesome cookouts or lake days. Please remember the reason for the observance as you kick off the fun.

All gave some, some gave all. God's speed to our fallen.

All these wood chips came from turning the octagons down to cylinders. All 60 are now round. Only two have issues. I think I will fix the issues and sell them as decoration only pins. They will not be food safe.

Will start turning handles on them soon. If you’ve been wanting a rolling pin of your own, now is a good time to order off our website. You won’t have to wait long for them to ship.

I know it doesn’t look like a lot of progress, but all 60 blanks had both ends squared off on my chop saw, their centers marked and drive spur indentions driven in. They were all then ran thru my bandsaw knocking off edges to make the blanks into an octagon. Tomorrow I will round them all to a uniform cylinder on my small lathe. Once they are rounded they will either become a traditional handle pin or a French pin.
