Hello from Ireland 🇮🇪

Been turning for around 2yr started off doing pens with carbide now I'm on the journey of really learning the craft,

Currently using Simon hope tools and also the sorby pro edge sharpening system.

Really love bowls, lamps and closed forms.

I own a gift business and I sell my items through that, we also do sublimation, laser engraved and laser cut items if I can ever be of assistance to anyone let me know.

I have two lovely boys, ages 6 and 11. Both are into woodworking. ?My workshop is currently a converted shipping container, but I'm rebuilding it in the summer in a 15-ft x 30-ft shipping container.

Will post some of my recent makes soon
