I toured Tom's Architectural turning shop - man!~ this guy is busy. How long is that post lathe Tom? 20 feet? What a nice shop! Thanks, Tom! Check Tom's site - very pretty stuff! |

http://briansykeswoodturning.com | I need to be honest. Brian Sykes is the wood artist's goal in life. I met him this year and have enjoyed a good new friendship. Brian has taken segmented turning and carving combinations to the next generation. I know nobody who has so many ribbons and awards as Brian. What talent! Throws a great great Halloween party too! |

http://www.anatolytsiris.com | This famous wood artist blew my socks off with the most awesome tour of his massive turning equipment and shop all of which he designed and built himself. Anatoly, a former Russian machine maker, makes hollow forms over 6 feet tall that are sold nationwide. He can pass a truck load of wood chips through a 3 - 4 inch hole in about 6 hours. He uses huge hoists to move his 3-4 foot diameter logs on to his giant lathe. A truly rare and astonishing artist, he creates amazingly beautiful pieces in these incredible sizes. We met at Brian's cool halloween party. |
