All items are handmade by David McCarthy primarily using wood that has been "rescued" from the five-acre Woodland Meadows site near Cincinnati, Ohio. Certain items use materials that are not available on-site and have been purchased locally. All items are one-of-a-kind and may contain small imperfections, slight cracks (either filled or not), and/or may be somewhat out-of-round. These add to the unique character of the individual items and should not be considered defects.
