I have been involved in woodwork since leaving school in 1996, at 16. I qualified  as a joiner achieving NVQ level 3 and while working in the trade, for my father, I discovered Woodturning. I began by turning components for small pieces of furniture and cabinetry that I had made but found that I got more and more involved with the turning side of things. You could say I got hooked! In 2006 I set up The Turner’s Workshop to pursue my passion for Woodturning, selling a few small turned items through a shop and my website. In March 2008 I moved into my own workshop in Wigston, Leicestershire. Here I am fully equipped to store, cut and prepare timber for turning. My interest is in turning for furniture but I am as comfortable turning 50 finials as I am a bread board or a unique bowl from highly figured timber. I would like to explore more artistic turning in the future.
