Woodturners supplies in Norfolk/Suffolk/Cambs/Essex

(1/3) > >>

Les Symonds:
I'll be spending several days in Norfolk and Suffolk, via Essex and Cambs in a few weeks time and thought that I'd call in to a few woodturners supplies shops, galleries etc, but I've had no luck at all by trawling through Yell.com looking for places to visit. Are there any turners out there who can point me in the right direction please? I know about Cobweb crafts, so might well call in, and I'll call in to Lincolnshire Woodcraft on my way back west to North Wales.

john taylor:
Nick Arnull http://www.nickarnullwoodturner.co.uk/ in Norfolk is worth a visit and of course Peter Childs http://www.peterchild.co.uk/ in Essex.

I am sure there are other places worth visiting, hopefully Andy knows some more.

Les Symonds:
Thanks John....I called in to Peter Child when I was last in Essex....I bought my lathe second hand from not too far away from his place, so might well call back there. The nickarnull link looks good.
Cheers...Les

Andy Coates:
It depends what you want really. Cobwebcrafts - which incidentally is me!- doesn't sell supplies, but you can always call in for a chat and a coffee.

D H Evans in Bury St Edmunds is a general tool and supplies store but with a large woodturning section. Elmers in Kesgrave ditto.

If you intend to call in on Nick Arnull give him a call first. He could be busy with orders.

Peter Child's you know about.

There's also Fakenham Tool & Equipment Hire Ltd, 9 George Edwards Road, Fakenham, Norfolk, NR21 8NL. Not the largest selection, but some tools, blanks, accessories etc.

There are others, such as Cambridge Wood blanks but they don't have a retail outlet.

Aside from that we're pretty barren really!

I didn't realise you were Cobweb Crafts Andy. Who does the glass work?
