Pictures from Center for Maine Craft demo
I promised that I would post pictures here from my demo at the Center for Maine Craft on August 7th. I had a good time demo at the Center. It was a perfect day with the temps just about perfect for an outside demo. Thanks goes out to the Center for Maine Craft for having me and to Dennis Curtis from Dennis Curtis Woodturning for helping with the set-up and take down. I demonstrated making bottle stoppers and you will be able to see a couple on the lathe in the pictures.
Hi Paul. I'm glad that you like my work. Sorry it took so long to respond. There were problems with my settings and they weren't allowing my comments to be posted.
I have spent my whole life immersed in the woods of Maine. I grew up hunting, fishing, ice fishing, snowshoeing, skiing, snowmobiling and spending as much time as possible outside. It only seems natural for me to be working with wood. I am a self taught woodturner. I have spent numerous hours refining my turning skills and when not turning I have spent a lot of time working on shapes. The shapes that I turn come to me from everywhere. It could be the shape of a distant mountain, the curve in the road, architecture and images from old pictures. All of my products are turned by eye and like in nature there are no two pieces ever alike.
