How many active turners remain in UKWorkshop ?

[selectortone]

Active? Er... I do a bit:

 

[Chris Knight]

I turn odds and sods in wood on a metal working lathe when I absolutely need something that I cannot fashion with bandsaw, spokeshave, drawknife, carving tools, or a router.

Plainly, I can't be called an enthusiast!

 

[Duncan A]

Yes, I turn. Not very well and not very prolific but it keeps me out of trouble.

[Dalboy]

As MikeG said I am still turning but I have been making some models for a commission so since may have done very little. I am taking a couple of days away from the workshop due to bad news Sunday that my 96year old Mum passed away, we knew it was going to happen but it does not make it any easier

 

[Droogs]

My deepest sympathies Dalboy

 

[heronviewer]

I do, intermittently !

 

[Welsh Wizard]

I try...

 

[Noggsy]

Yup, I still turn, usually to make a part for something else.

 

[Dave Brookes]

Yes, still addicted!

 

[Davyc]

Yep....or I would be if my lathe hadn’t spit out a dummy and decided it wants new headstock bearings......(ordered today).

 

[Roland]

Intermittently. Fewer than a dozen bowls a year. My avatar is a holly bowl which I turned two years ago. I use the lathe for other things too. Earlier this year I made some replacement drawer knobs for an antique desk.

 

[Jonzjob]

I'm still turning but looking for somewhere to sell on what I'm doing. Either that or I'll sink below the rising turned wood

 

[ScaredyCat]

Deepest sympathies Dalboy, lost my mother-in-law in January. Still not easy.

 

[Mark Hancock]

I'm still at it, though it's teaching woodturning more these days.

 

[timber]

Ye Still at it most days. Not on a normal lathe .I use a Legacy mill, I have two and would like to swap one of them for a normal wood lathe Around the £400 mark.
These are some of my turnings all out of bit of scrap wood.

 

[SVB]

Yes, still turn occasionally.

 

[bobblezard]

I turn when I can - in between work and house renovation demands - I make sure I am trying new projects

 

[alexalexander]

I still do some turning along with the other woodworking.

 

[Dalboy]

Thank you Droogs and ScaredyCat.
