Big Monk Lumber Company

fancy stuff for woodturners. looking for shokwood & shokres pieces from beyond wood products? look no further! stopper size blanks, pen blanks, scales & box mods? we carry it! scales, grips, stainless steel stoppers, and standing stoppers. yes, we have the mandrels and package deals as well! we try to bring products to woodturners that they enjoy and look for and it’s given us the chance to travel and make new friends. now, as far as the name big monk, it’s certainly more catchy than pete’s hardwoods. big monk was the favorite stuffed animal of one of our granddaughters, emily elizabeth. she never went anywhere without her stuffed monkey tagging along. emily named the little guy big monk and since they both spent so much time out in the shop while i re-sawed turning squares or coated them with wax, and since emily was determined she was going to help us out, "big monk" seemed like a natural fit. that’s our story and we’re stickin’ to it . . . pete & shirley kekel big monk lumber compan
