Today my Students were Oliver and Rich from Surry.Oliver is a tree surgeon and he brought some beutiful Sycamore for them to turn Bowls out of.He has had this wood stored away for about 8 years so it is nice and dry and has some beutiful spalting as you can see from the pictures.
Oliver and Rich were realy good company and a pleasure to have here.
Really enjoyable day, it went so quickly.
ReplyDeleteLots of tips, tricks and knowledge through years of experience were handed out throughout the days course.
I would thoroughly recommend anyone considering taking up wood turning spending a day with George. Advice on equipment and tool choice was invaluable.
George and Sue made us very welcome,
Thanks for a fantastic day.

Hi George Sorry I haven't been back to you.
ReplyDeleteI would like to say that the course was very informative and relaxed and made for a very enjoyable day.For a beginner I found your sense of humour and teaching technique put me at ease .
I would recommend this course for anyone who would like to try wood turning and to have a great day.
Not only do you learn to wood turn but also come away with a beautiful bowl.what a result. If Rich an I can make a bowl anyone can !!
Thanks you Sue for looking after us so well with refreshments and your hospitality
