Woodworking Biography:
I have been working with wood in one form or
another for most of my adult life but only recently became interested in
wood turning through a desire to build some chairs in the Shaker style.
Subsequently, I purchased several books and video tapes in an effort to
learn about turning. This led to the purchase of a Oneway Lathe and a few
basic tools. Since then I have joined the Guild to become acquainted with
people that pursue wood turning and take advantage of their willingness
to share their knowledge. Someday I hope to be able to pass along some of
the tips and techniques I learn from Guild members. Seeing some of the
wonderful objects that have been made not only provides inspiration, but
also an abundance of ideas for future projects. What started out as a means
to an end, has evolved into a love of turning.
