I'm an arts and crafts student from Norway, aiming to become a teacher when I finish my BA. Which happens to be due in three weeks. I specialize in woodwork and it is one of my favorite materials to work with. For my final project I'm focusing on woodturning, because in three years of studying arts and crafts we had all of three days of woodturning. It was enough to get me hooked, but not enough to really learn all that much. So I decided to learn on my own. Which has been plenty of fun! I've gotten some experience in turning green wood, but have very few materials to work with when it comes to seasoned wood. I have some pieces of ash, walnut, oak and popplar, but none of them are big enough to make a full project of. So I'm poking around a bit to see what options I have, and segmented turning really seems to be my best option. I am also very interested in off centre turning. Since I have to learn all this on my own, internet has been a great help for me, and I really hope I can use this forum as a resource.
This is a selection of what I've done so far. As you can tell, not very advanced, but I'm aiming to learn more These are all turned in green wood, and not all of them are quite dry yet.
