Alan Peters video

[Sgian Dubh]

I hope some of you might enjoy this short video by Jeremy Broun on Alan Peters: The Maker's Maker.

He is considered one of the living 'greats' of British furniture design and craft. This short video is a prelude to a longer film that is due out towards the end of this year-- I'm looking forward to that.

Sadly he no longer enjoys good health but I will always remember his generosity as a 'senior statesman' in the business when we met and through telephone conversations we had in which we discussed and debated some of finer points of furniture design and making. Slainte.

Richard - thanks for that, much appreciated. I agree with your sentiments about Alan and wish him well. I'll probably order a copy of that film as well - Rob

Thanks for the link, Richard. I admire Jeremy's work and what he's done with his books and DVDs. I've also been looking forward to this one for a while.
