I’m sorry for your loss. I did not know Steve.
The Feb 2014 journal featured some of Steve’s finials
Impressive work.

Impressive work.
I have known Steve for a number of years and he has taught here in my shop and I have and use his tools. A great guy and so sorry that he is gone.
That's gorgeous work!

That is some skilled finial work; likely the tip of the iceberg!
That piece in your picture just boggles the mind. Seems like Steve had a lot to teach the woodturning folks. WOW!
He surely did! And he was wildly generous with his skills and knowledge, teaching many people over the last 20 years.
Sad news indeed. Condolences to his family and those who knew him.
