Alun Rees - wood

Following his retirement from full time employment Alun decided to make studio wood turning his new occupation. He works from an equipped workshop using a VB36 Bowl lathe. Producing a range of bowls, platters and smaller decorative and useful items, he prefers to work with the woods with more pronounced grains like Burr Oak, Walnut, Burr Elm and Cherry.

Alun obtains his woods from fallen trees and branches and discarded off cuts from local commercial joinery companies to supplement the blanks bought from sawmills and wood fairs. His products are usually finished with Danish Oil, Teak Oil or Friction Polish.
