Some very nice furniture here Tim, all look very well made .. :thumbs:

Take no notice of what Vic says, pen making is very different to making furniture, i mean come on, anyone can make bedroom cabinets etc ... :whistling::whistling::whistling:

Thanks for your kind words chaps. It's always nice to get praise from your piers. As for the workshop Paul, almost everyone who buys a house in the countryside round here gets a lot of outbuildings with the house and I'm fortunate to have loads of space. What you see in the photo's is only a part of it. My lathe is in another room and wood stores on mezzanines. It's bloody freezing this time of year though. Having so much space makes it impossible to heat properly especially as it's not insulated. I'l take some photo's another time and do a workshop tour. By the way are you the Paulm from the UKWorkshop?

Sorry missed your question George - no I don't sell it. Most of what you see there is in my house but some of it made for friends who in turn do me favours. That's how our little world in the Limousin turns.

You're a lucky man Tim to have that amount of space and turning out some good stuff as well.

Lovely stuff and great skills are obvious - congratulations! Oh, and another thing - while it's true that we have some weird, ungainly and downright ugly-looking members in our forum none of them look like piers, Tim. I think the word you were looking for is "peers". LOL!LOL!LOL!

Beautiful, and more-so the fact you have made it for yourself and it all has practical use in your own abode.
Love it init?
