Welcome to the AAW and to the Forum Richard!

Good work indeed! Thanks for sharing your web site - with your permission, I'll add it to my 'Woodturning Links' web page...(see below)... would that be OK with you?

If you're heading over to a future AAW Symposium, might I ask now that a bottle or two of some fabulous Scottish ale accompany you on the trip over? - I'd be happy to reimburse for costs just to have some authentic local nectar from your part of the world! Fantastic beer!

Glad to have you with us!!

Cheers!

Welcome Richard.

Welcome to the AAW Forum Richard! I perused your web site and found awe inspiring turned and sculptured pieces there I might add. Some of us (me), might have a trying time to achieve work of your caliber. I envy you living in the Scottish country side as you do. Welcome, we need people like you in our fold to have something more to shoot for.
