Acorn Woodturning » Professional Demonstrators

Phil Jones has a lifetime of experience in woodturning and has a wide range of experience to fall back on, whether you require a one-off item or a production run of turned items whether copy turned on a copy lathe for mass production or as is often required hand turned. The picture is of a set of rustic bowls hand turned for Albion Barn which was following the remit of Max Lamb of being unsanded and with tooling marks from wet blanks supplied by Max from timber from Abion Barn estate.Whether you require a small antique replacement part or a run of chair back sticks Phil is likely to have completed them previously.

      Phil was taught by time served woodturners in an informal apprenticeship and has also worked in other woodturning establishments , he started his business Acorn woodturning in 1988. He also offers woodturning lessons in a well-equipped traditional woodturning workshop with all the tools and safety equipment provided. The workshop has dust extraction and ambient air filters, tools and lathes, and a plentiful supply of timber, just waiting to be turned into shavings and of course a completed item.He recently has had the pleasure of working with Max Lamb on a Art exhibition which was held at Albion Barn and also appeared in the Financial Times in an article written by Arthur  House.
