Simon Phillips RIP

[richburrow]

One of my best mates Simon was killed in a car crash last week. A terrible shock for everyone involved, most of all we are thinking of his family at this time of year. The reason I am posting this is partly because I am going to miss chatting to him about all things wood / tools / women / kids etc. Mainly I would like to share with you guys what a craftsman he was. We went to college in Shrewsbury 8 years ago and he was the most skilled in my year by a long way. Have a look at a few of his pieces and sorry this is not very cheerful
