About this Product
Wood Dibbers, Hand Turned. Dibbers are used for planting seeds and bulbs. The dibber is pushed into the soil to the desired depth to produce a hole for either a seed or a bulb. The dibber is marked with inch wide markings from 1 to 6 inches. Our dibbers are approximately 9.5 inches long from top to tip. The handle has a rawhide loop for hanging up when not in use. Our dibbers are made from either maple or mahogany wood. They have been finished with several coats of oil to protect them. A great gift for the gardener in your family.
To care for the dibber, wipe clean after each use. They can be washed with a mild soap and warm water then toweled dry. After several uses or at the end of planting apply a thin coat of oil or wax to a clean dibber to protect it for another planting season.

Meet the Maker
I have been turning wood bowls and boxes for about 25 years. It started as a hobby out of my garage on the weekends. Now that I have retired, I have a new dedicated workshop where I turn bowls, boxes, trees, and many other wooden items full time to sell at art & craft fairs in western Maine, and online. Wood is such a wonderful medium to work with, when you start to turn a bowl, you never know what it will reveal for grain patterns or color variances within the wood. It is like unwrapping a new present each time. On average each large bowl may take several days from start to finish.
How it’s Made
Each dibber is hand turned on a wood lathe. The inch markings are then turned into the shaft. The dibber is sanded and finished with several coats of oil to protect it.
