Since getting my first Lee
Valley catalogue in 1978, it has been a dream of mine to one
day make something worthy of an appearance on a Lee Valley
cover. I'm absolutely thrilled to have finally achieved
that goal! To work in wood is a pleasure unlike any other
and I feel fortunate and proud to have lovespoon carving
be my little place in the woodworking world!
