With a love for the outdoors and a need to keep idle hands busy, I found a passion for ring making. It all started after finding an old lathe in the back of my Father-in-laws shop. At the beginning of 2022 I started turning plain wooden rings to replace my original wedding band. However, I wanted something more unique, so a transition was made to securing blended wood/media to metal cores. After that Angler Artisan Works was born.

Whether it’s a random piece of drift wood along a vast ocean coast, or picking up a couple pebbles at the top of a mountain, I found that the story made the ring special. You can either take part in my adventure as I hoof it around this crazy rock we call home, or I would love to create a ring that represents your story. It could be sand from a memorable vacation, a memento of a loved one or simply some materials from your own backyard. Either way, I want your ring to hold special meaning for you.
