About us

The company was originally set up by Denis & Jean Rayner in the early 1950’s solely as a saw sharpening business and over the years it has gradually expanded.

 

Tony and Barry have continued their late father’s keen interest in woodturning and supply of exotics timbers from around the world.

We supply luthiers, woodturners and furniture makers their lumber needs from small blanks to whole boards.
