Back Into Production

 

The studios tours are over and it is time to get back into production.  Brian has collected his most promising burls and brought them into the workshop.  Timbers which have been drying for a few years have been cut and made into rounds on the bandsaw. Maple and box elder burl, walnut burl and spalted maple are now ready for turning into platters and bowls.

Brian is excited about getting back to work as he finds inspiration in the shape of the burl, the texture of the wood and his intuitive approach to woodturning.
