Gerald Burcote Woodturning

Having taken up woodturning before I retired, after watching one of my customers woodturning and having a back ground engineering some what mistakenly I thought that looks easy how wrong can you be. Anyway 25 years later I am still at it.
Now I undertake commissions as well producing a wide range utility items mostly for kitchen use, pepper and salt mills in various configurations, spurtles, salad servers, pinch pots, along with bowls and platters.
The other side is a range of Victorian copies of sewing sets, knitting needles, needle cases, thimble holders and much more. These tend to made from English Box wood which take a male and female threads to join pieces and can take fine details to enhance the tactile feel of the pieces.
Many more pieces are made for your home skeleton clocks, pocket watches in various exotic woods (when available) apples and pears in a variety of woods and seed pods ,bowls and platters show your off your collections.
