John Kershaw, Last year I made a full size English Windsor chair and became interested in all the different styles so I thought I would make a miniature (12" tall) as I haven't room for more large chairs. This New England fan back Windsor chair miniature is all yew.

John Kershaw, I thought I would try something new. I have been turning for over 15 years and never tried colouring wood before, this is a piece of plain sycamore which I thought needed brightening up, it was a learning curve.

Steve Fearnley Final finials! After making 200 finials in the last 18 months, the finial factory is taking a break! I am now passing orders for these popular items onto Philip Greenwood. Time to realise the potential of all those offcuts and pieces of wood in my garage just waiting to be turned.
