Woodworker Wednesday - Motoko Works

Happy Woodworker Wednesday! We can't get enough of the beautiful handcrafted pieces by Motoko Smith of Motoko Works! What started as a hobby quickly blossomed into a passion for Motoko, who now does balances her time between home life and woodworking.

Then I look at wood and decide whats possible with the characteristics I observe: grain direction, natural edge, end grain or long grain, spalted wood and etc." Read the full article here: http://bit.ly/1KSmSoY
