WEST COUNTRY WOODTURNER

COLWIN WAYRPT

Welcome to my website, I hope you enjoy browsing through the galleries, shops and stories. The site is intended to be a resource as well as an insight into my turning journey. You may feel inspired enough to give one of the many projects a go for yourself! You can buy one of the downloadable step-by-step guides or hardcopy instruction booklets. And purchase hardware to finish your own Christmas Heirloom or just watch one of the many project videos. What ever you do, I hope to inspire you to try something new and have fun with your turning!!

OUR WORKSHOP

We are thrilled to announce that we are officially open for business! This is a project that has been in the works for a long time, but with help from friends, family and the wonderful staff at millers farm shop we are now up and running. We invite anyone and everyone to come in and say hello. Take a look around our gallery store and, if you like what you see, we offer a range of courses ranging from beginner to advanced for everyone to try woodturning for themselves!

MEET THE MAKER

My turning journey began in 1986 when I started a 5 year production turning apprenticeship. I was trained in all aspects of turning in many different materials and enjoyed my time learning so much, it became an addiction! I now count myself very lucky to be able to travel the world doing what I love, demonstrating and teaching my skills to others, embarking on their own turning journey.  I still enjoy creating, making and writing about turning from my own workshop in the Southwest of England, located on the beautiful  Jurassic coast.
