OLE WOODCRAFTER™ PET PRODUCTS. CRAFTING AT ITS BEST

  CRAFTING FOR YOU AND YOUR PETS FOR OVER 36 YEARS!!

Hello folks the Ole Woodcrafter™ here.

I make my home in the beautiful

Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia located in the southwest section of the state. 

It is here in these mountains that the wife and I spend our days making are own brand of Pet products, Wood signs and other hand crafted wood items. 

Folks when I am not crafting for customers I spend the rest of my time playing with my grandchildren that I have been blessed with.

As far back as I can remember I have always been involved in creating wooden items out of necessity and just for the personal pleasure that I find in doing so.

Some folks are taught to wood craft and since that I have always done so, I guess that you could say that I was Self taught then finely tuned my skills through out the many years by other Master Woodcrafters right here in the great Blue Ridge Mountains...

Then as time passed becoming a Master Woodcrafter myself passing the skills on down to the good folks right here in Virginia.

Why choose a product made by my wife and I…well lets start by saying these beautiful products are not made in another country where some items but not all are made on the cheap side then exported to this great country to be sold at a much higher price through pet magazines, drop shipping warehouses, pet stores and other places as such.

Another good reason is especially these days why would a person want to pay such a very high price for a pet feeder that comes from pet stores…where the store itself buys the cheaply made feeders from other countries at a very very low price and then ups the price.

The feeders that the wife and I personally hand craft are far lower in price… plus you get your pet names hand burned into the front of the wood feeder for free by me. A craft in itself that is called pyrography that means in ancient Greek… writing with fire….

The Ole Woodcrafter™ pet products and other items are not plastic items that can chip and break or light weight metal adjustable doo-dads..that will bend once a pet places its muzzle into the feeder….

How do I know this… pretty often my new customers tell me this after they had purchased those kind of items.

The stainless steel bowls that I use I prefer due to the research that I found that many ceramic pet bowls that come from abroad could contain dangerous levels of lead as pet toys and just recently some childrens toys that are made in some countries.

Folks lets face the truth... pets are members of our families and should be treated with love and respect and their health is very important.

Veterinarians will tell you that raised pet feeders are highly recommended for your pets health… check out the health benefits of raised pet feeders through your favorite search engine.

I place a very high value on crafting with quality.

For over 36 years of building these pet products and items for homes I have learned what quality means to my valued customers. My items are not thrown together quickly on a conveyer line then stacked in a corner for months waiting to be sold.

These items are personally made one at a time by my wife and I as the order or orders come in and are built and shipped in 3 to 4 business days. Our work day starts early and ends late... we being an American mom and pop shop are able to send items out that quick especially when you love what you do as the wife and I do. 

We personally hand pick through each piece of wood that is used. Sometimes going through entire stacks of lumber. I check the grain of the wood, and other traits in the wood that is very important. I try to do my very best when it comes to putting my products together. If it does not pass both of our ideals of what the product should be then it does not leave my wood shop.

We believe in the old standards? IF ITS NOT RIGHT FOR US THEN ITS NOT RIGHT FOR YOU. .and that folks is a standard that is lacking more and more these days.

That is one of the basic reasons why customers keep coming back.. And we truly do thank you for that.

We are very proud of the pet items and other items that we make..

We feel that we are doing a service for our furry friends that give us so much love and attention.

I use the very best of stains and finishes that are on the market for all my products. If you use a cheap stain the product fails in beauty. The stains are also applied by hand along with three coats of finish. I truly believe that the beauty is in the stain and the craftsmanship is in how that it is put together. It is out of love for the passion of crafting with my hands and enjoying life here in these mountains of Virginia that I feel that I have been truly blessed.

Well folks take a look around and if you see anything you like just give the Ole Woodcrafter™ a yell?.. God bless and have a good day.

QUICK ANSWERS TO SOME OF YOUR QUESTIONS. 

 SHIPPING

Folks I’ll tell you right up front.. There’s No need in beating around the bush...I keep the cost of shipping down by doing what I can... For example the don't charge for the cost of boxes or even shipping tape. I Don't charge for the printing ink or even taking the item to the post office when the item calls to be shipped by mail.. when it comes to shipping my products.... If I can get it there to you at a rock bottom price then we are both happy... I don't set the shipping cost... UPS sets the rates for the items to get to you... if I could I would have free shipping... but we all know in the real world there is no such thing as free shipping. The folks that offer free shipping just include the shipping cost into the price. That my friends is misleading and this old woodcrafter just does not like to do things that way. 

The pet products that I make are not light weight plastic that can break and chip or light weight dollar store items. These items are strong and built to last and as you can see at a very reasonable price.

When do I receive the item

All pet items are personally hand crafted by me and my wife right here in Southwest Virginia. Folks There is no store house full of these items where I can go and pull them off of the shelf. Each piece is individually crafted to meet your pets needs. UPS stops here at my wood shop every day Monday thru Friday. I am retired so I wood craft 6 days a week and am able to send your items out in three days or less except for Saturday and Sunday... and that is due to UPS does not work on the weekends... I do but they don't. Did I mention that i am Retired...LOL...

On shipping notification

After your pet item is shipped out you don't have to worry are wonder about if that old woodcrafter sent my item out... you see I send along an email stating that your item has been shipped and the date that you should receive it... I even send along to you the UPS tracking numbers so that you can watch your item as it comes your way... WOW.. you can't beat that with a stick!. 

Shipping Insurance

All UPS customers are insured up to one hundred dollars. There's no need in sending along any extra green backs (money) because you are covered. 

 Pets name

I will try very hard to get up to 2 names and maybe 3 if there is room at no cost to you!! WOW... NOW WHAT ABOUT THAT!!.. no cost to you.. remember folks I want your repeat business. Please send along the pets name when you purchase the item by clicking on ask seller a question tab or email me... alistarr41@hotmail.com not to worry Iwill confirm back to you that I have the information. 

On staining

I use top grade minwax stains that the label says it penetrates, stains and seals the wood. Afterwards I apply 3 coats of water based polyurethane finish. I also can leave the pet item unfinished so that you can stain it or paint it to match your own interior. The staining is all done by hand and is also free.... there is that word again... FREE. These are the stains that I offer.. Early American, Cherry, Golden Pecan, Red Mahogany, Special Walnut, Colonial Maple, English Chestnut, Red Oak, Ipswich pine Golden Oak.

Please send along your stain choice and pets name when you purchase the item by clicking on ask the seller a question tab.

SENDING EMAILS TO ME... THE OLE WOODCRAFTER

I am here for you seven days a week. When I'm not in the wood shop I am on this modern day contraption called a computer pecking away with one finger mind you answering all emails through out the day.

If it gets to much then my lovely wife of 36 wonderful years will email you and she can use all of her little fingers… lol…
