I was born in Sussex England in 1944. I severed an apprenticeship as a joiner and cabinet maker. I emigrated to Australia with my wife and our eldest daughter in 1965. After working as a carpenter and later running a building business for a number of years retired in 2009. Upon retirement i decided to take up wood turning, I use mainly local native timbers from dead or fallen trees. Seeing the colour and grain emerge whilst turning is most satisfying. A passion for wood and a desire for perfection are two of the forces that drive me. |
