Bill’s Natural wood products

All of the wood products have food-grade lacquer put on them so that they are not just pretty but also useful. The fully-cured oils would also be considered food safe. Bill’s niche is leaving the natural edge on a wood product. A live edge bowl, also sometimes called a natural edge bowl, is a bowl that uses the natural contour of the bark side of a log as the top rim edge of the bowl.  If you see a wood product that you like, call Bill at (402) 613-0996.
