Ed Hotchkin
Woodworking Biography: Ed started turning in 1997.  His first three pieces were turned out of sycamore and he still has them on display in his house. His favorite wood to turn now is ash, mostly because it has beautiful straight grain; he also likes buckeye.  He turns on his Oneway lathe and admits to being a bit of a “type A Perfectionist”.  He says he doesn’t really turn anything useful, he likes to turn hollow forms and most have “useless small openings”.  Ed has become our club “mentor” on coloring wood.
