Welcome,
John Jordan was a woodturner for thirty-seven years. He did demonstrations for, or gave hands-on lessons to thousands of woodturners in most states in the US, as well as over ten other countries. The turned and carved vessels he made are featured in numerous private and corporate collections, as well as the Public Collections of more than thirty museums. This includes seven pieces in the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian Institution, and the acquisition of two pieces by the prestigious Victoria & Albert Museum in London. If you have interest in the work that he made, please visit the gallery section.

The tools that he used to produce this work are available here. These are the same tools he used for over 35 years, and are made here in Tennessee. The hollow turning tools are simple, easy to use tools and work for the novice turner as well as the experienced turner. They are the best hollow turning tools you can get. If you are not happy with them, or any of our tools, We will gladly refund your money. Beware of tools made by companies or people that have little or no real experience producing work. John's proven tools have produced thousands of successful pieces, not only by John, but also by many satisfied users. We sell only tools that we use!
In addition to the hollowing tools, we also have some of the nicest handles around, the unique double-ended shear scraper, Thompson and Robust gouges, a sharpening jig and more. I’m very proud of John's most recent video, “The Aesthetics and Properties of Wood”, which is one of the most important, but often misunderstood, aspects of woodturning. We will also try to keep some technical and artistic pages coming, so check back from time to time.
If you need anything, please let us know. We appreciate your interest and are always glad to help.
Good Turning!
