Robin Wood, Bowlturner: hand-made traditional wooden bowls and plates.

<BODY> <H1>Robin Wood, bowlturner</H1> <H2>the only turner in England specialising in making wooden bowls and plates on a traditional foot-powered lathe</H2> <H3>Wooden tableware</H3> <P>Many people use my plates and bowls as everyday tableware. They are sealed with a natural vegetable oil finish and can be washed in hot, soapy water. My on-line catalogue gives availability by mail order and I accept payment by Visa or MasterCard.</P> <H3>Bowls of character</H3> <P>Like the old turners, I use no sandpaper relying entirely on the sharpness of my tools for a good finish. Bowls made in this way have a distinctive character with the marks of the tools being clearly visible, like hand thrown pottery or blown glass.</P> <P>Robin Wood, Lee Farm Cottage, Upper Booth, Edale, Hope Valley S33 7ZJ, UK</P> <P>email: <A HREF="mailto:robin@robin-wood.co.uk">robin@robin-wood.co.uk</A></P> <P><A HREF="index.htm" TARGET="_top"><FONT FACE="Verdana" SIZE="-2">home</FONT></A></P> <P><A HREF="catframe.htm" TARGET="_top"><FONT FACE="Verdana" SIZE="-2">on-line catalogue</FONT></A></P> <P><A HREF="turnframe.htm" TARGET="_top"><FONT FACE="Verdana" SIZE="-2">traditional turning</FONT></A></P> <P><A HREF="histframe.htm" TARGET="_top"><FONT FACE="Verdana" SIZE="-2">history & replicas</FONT></A></P> <P><A HREF="infoframe.htm" TARGET="_top"><FONT FACE="Verdana" SIZE="-2">further information</FONT></A></P> </BODY>
