A couple of weeks ago I had a wonderful week at the Florida School of Woodwork, in Tampa, Florida. I took a box-making class with Michael Cullen, and eight of my women in turning friends. We used a bandsaw to cut out the box shapes, and then used hand tools to carve textures. The boxes were finished with milk paint. The entire week was delightful.
Kate Swann, the owner of the school, asked me to record an interview. She posted it on YouTube, and you can watch it by clicking on this link:
