I have had the privilege of providing some mentoring to a young man from our church, Christopher Reid, who approached me about 18 months ago with a desire to learn wood-turning.
A couple of lessons and a ton of passion and he is well on his way. His website is http://bowlandpen.com/ ... stop by and give him some encouragement, I know he would be excited to hear from you.
Last Sunday, he showed me small box he made from an old chair leg. I was amazed at his creativity! It's on his website with a pictorial of how he made it.
His brother filmed him making a pen and posted the short, time-lapse video on his website and can be viewed here. http://www.vimeo.com/15010969
He has mastered the Skew and CA finish after one lesson. It is truly a pleasure to see him grow and I look forward to his development as an artist. He will go far.
