For the most comprehensive
site on woodturning I have discovered on the web, it has everything
of interest to me and am sure you will agree when you have been
there.
Stiles
and Bates
For
my special sourced timber such as hernia blocks I go to Stiles and
Bates Nr Dover, Kent. Dave Bates, who is also an excellant woodturner
and understands my timber requirements but, also supplies most of
my other needs such as replacement gouges, sandpaper and various
types of finishes. If you are in the area it is always well worth
a visit to the shop for turning blanks, tools, finishing materials
and a very friendly and sincere service.They also have probably
the best tutorial workshops setup (spacious, well equipped and comfortable)
that I have ever come across, one workshop is dedicated for woodturning,
the other for carving, carpentry/cabinet making, walking stick making
and other crafts. I dont think they cater for the hernia block style
of turning that I do.
Nick
Agar
Nick is a very
interesting and talented turner. I learnt a lot from a course with
him to further enhance my wall sculptures and other turnings. If
you are interested in any type of turning course click on his name
above, you won't be disappointed. His very well equipped atelier
is situated by the waters edge on the river Dart, one of the most
beautiful rivers and parts in England.

Chestnut Products
I always try to use one manufacturers finishing
products. Chestnut Products fits my requirements with their environmentally
friendly Acrylic range of sanding sealer and finishing lacquers
and oils, even their Wood Wax 22, although still inflammable it
doesn’t contain harmful solvents like most other waxes.
