About Me

I am pretty new to wood turning. I bought a Rockwell Lathe about 2 months ago, I managed to source some tools from my dad, who recently upgraded his set.

I have also just Joined the Port Elizabeth Woodturners Guild PEWG.

I started turning when I was about 16 years old. I basically taught myself on my dads lathe and I made one or two lamps and some solatare boards. This year my father and I went to Nico Swarts' wood turning classes and where taught how to use the tools properly. Ever since then I have been addicted to turning.

I am slowly but surely learning and growing my skills to that one day I can make some works of art.
