The TouchWood building has been refurbished by a team of volunteers under the expert guidance of John Jones . However this is only the start of the project and much work is still needed to continue this success . If you feel you have any contribution to make please contact us. Joiners , cabinet makers , boat builders are most welcome

TouchWood are an environmental body , and we are registered with Entrust.
We believe that Skye can support a viable recycling business. We have been in production for over a year making furniture from pallets and other reclaimed wood as well as restoring old furniture.

In the recent past the above pile of old timber would have gone up in smoke . Visit "workshop" & "gallery" to see what it will become.
