Well this one is right at the other end of the spectrum from my foot powered turning but I like it anyway. There is something special about really large pieces of wood, I am a fan of Brancusi and Hepworth, these may not be in the same league art wise but they have a presence and are fun and I also love to see oddballs with passion working away at something with dedication.

I like his style. Great project and the finished pieces resonate and reflect the natural material. We have one smaller (16" diameter) in our lounge which we love, made from hardwood root in SE Asia.
That was quite interesting but I wished they had taken the opportunity to show off the scale of the balls. I think they must be bigger than they appear in the photos. Cool video though!
