About
Geoff is a former engineer turned pole-lathe wood-turner. He desired a life away from a desk, and the chance to be more creative, and for seven years now, he’s been a full-time maker. In 2024 he became a QEST Emerging Maker and studied the art of stop-turning, urushi lacquer and tool forging. His time in recent years has been focussed on improving the ergonomics of the lathe and rediscovering the knowledge lost when this Heritage Craft nearly died out.
