I needed to practice 2 ways of mounting a platter, to get timings for an upcoming demonstration. The timber was 2 identical London Plane pieces. Then I forgot what I was supposed to be doing and went off on this tangent instead.
I met Nick many years ago before he moved to the USA, He presented a trophy I won back in the early days of my turning journey and every time our paths crossed he remembered and was interested in my progress.
Nick was a brilliant artist, a great woodturner and teacher, and most importantly a really nice person.
Though he has passed away, his footprints are spread far and wide, his website still exists and you can see some of his work here nickagarstudios.com
woodturners.uk worth a look if you are a UK turner who wants a website.
