The Log

Welcome to The Log! I'm Jackie Toner, also known as The Woods(wo)man, and this space is my evolving journey through the world of woodworking and woodturning. Just like the grain of wood tells a story, The Log captures the twists, turns, and growth of my craft.

This isn’t just a blog—it’s a living record of lessons learned, techniques honed, and whimsical ideas brought to life. Whether you’re a fellow maker, an enthusiast, or someone curious about how a chunk of wood becomes something extraordinary, you’ll find inspiration and insight here.

The Log is my way of blending tradition with a modern twist. From the art of selecting the perfect piece of wood to tips on creating inclusive designs that make life a little more magical, every entry is rooted in my passion for natural materials, sustainability, and the craftsmanship that transforms them into something special.

So, whether you're here for the sawdust stories, the behind-the-scenes look at my latest projects, or just a sprinkle of woodworking wonder, The Log is for you. Let’s keep growing, learning, and creating—one entry (and one log) at a time!
