My lazy susans have two unique aspects. The surface is recessed with a narrow rim
around the outside, and they have a ceramic tile embedded in the center to add color and
allow for cutting of cheese or other food.
Spatulas are made from Goncalo Alves (tropical wood) with the band saw and are meant to
be used in hot as well as cold dishes.
Price: $8-$16
Wine Stopper
Wine Stoppers are made mostly from Cocobolo (king of rosewoods) and are really handy if
you frequently have an open bottle on the shelf.
Price: $10

stoppers (and some great wine as well!).
Salad Bowl
Cherry is my favorite for making salad bowls, although any fruit wood will make a good
bowl. They are meant to be used for food and will last a lifetime if you wash them in warm
soapy water, rinse them and dry them right away.
