Seeking inspiration.

[Les Symonds]

I had a rather bad accident in work a week or so ago, so haven't been able to use the lathe since then and will need to take things very carefully for a while. Meanwhile, as I can't get around to making anything, I settled for gaining inspiration for future turnings. I've a soft-spot for the Arts & Craft movement and took the chance this weekend to visit Blackwell House in Bowness, on Windermere. I know that very little of what I've seen involves turning, but inspiration doesn't have to be in-the-round. Can't wait to start putting a few of these ideas into production.








....and here's the main source of my inspiration....not so much SWMBO, as SWPUWMS (work that one out!)

Lots to think about it is surprising where you can get inspiration from
