Robin Wood making a bowl on foot-powered lathe
"Robin Wood makes a nesting set of bowls to commemorate the death of the 'last bowlturner' George Lailey who died 50 years ago. Inspired by Lailey's tools and lathe in the Museum of English Rural Life, Robin recreated the lost craft fifteen years ago and now makes his living as a bowlturner."

Yes...it sure is beautiful. What a wonderful tribute. Amazing work with handmade tools.
Another splendid example of a craftsman at work, some great blog posts this week. I feel I have learned something.

Wow thanks for posting me up Lloyd and we made boing boing too.

Hey Robin, beautiful work mate, thanks for sharing.
As a novice, can I ask what wood that is your using?
Thanks
