Ambrose & Brid O'Halloran


Welcome to our site. We are woodturners who both share the passion for working with wood. We work together and support each other. As a team we divide our woodturning time between

 

  1. Making -both production items and one off pieces.Click to View Ambrose gallery. Click to View Brid Gallery
  2. Teaching - both the craft and philosophy of modern woodturning
  3. Demonstrating - woodturning to a variety of audiences, click for complete list
  4. Writing - about the woodturning field click on the articles published tab
  5. Learning -from established masters of Woodturning click on the master turners tab for complete list



All of these activities reinforce the other and all lead to our continuing search for knowledge not only within turning but within the decorative arts field as a whole. As such we describe ourselves as students of woodturning and we are constantly adding to our knowledge as we explore this very exciting woodturning field. Our whole Philosophy is not to simply ask How? but to ask Why?. Once you know the why you can always figure out the How's

This philosophy is best summed up by a quote from W.B. Yeats

"Education is not filling a pail but lighting a fire"
