Thread: Turner Interview: Keith Burns

  1. Your shop looks perfectly organized and that trait seems to reflect the mind set of people who do segmented turning. They always seem to have a nice neat shop with everything in its place. Your wonderful segmented work reflects that type of orderly mind. I always enjoy seeing your segmented work. What a nice family. I bet your wife has to keep a close eye on you.

    Other comments about your interview:

    Only two more grandsons and you will have a baseball team...
    You are that good, you no longer have to wish...
    And, yes, you can do that...better than most...
    I would love to be in your turning school...
    People who turn thongs are not common.... just don't let it become your signature piece

    I am looking forward to the day we meet.

    I have done so much with so little for so long I am now qualified to do anything with nothing......

    P.S. If you are interested in plans for any project that I post, just put some money in an envelope and mail it to me and I will keep it.

    Keith you shop looks more like a lab than a wwing shop. May explain why your pic in the interview and the more recent pic used in your avatar are so much different. You've been experimenting with those exotic finishes and woods. I think I'll steer clear of your wood and finishing choices as I still have 3 hairs and my skin is some what clear, don't want to mess up a nice image.

    By the way at the rate you are accumulating tools it look like the lab is about to explode. Further more your shop is, both inside and out, destined to be on the cover of the New Yorker of some other fine magazine.

    Very nice to meet ya and your wife and doggy and shop

    Nice interview Keith! Nice to know a little more about you and your family. I like your choice of trees! Living in Hawaii, I developed an appreciation for the Banyan. Hope to meet you some day.

    So the guy who does professional dust collection does not have his own dust collector?

  9. Hey Tom,

    Check out the thread that Andy posted a link to... shows a lot more of the shop, along with a DC...

    Either I am easier to forget than I thought or you have been playing with exotics to long. I met Keith last month (Feb) at a Turning club meeting that he invited me too. Nice to meet you again Keith.. and I plan on seeing you in the future at more turning events..

    Guys, I don't know what else to say except thanks for all of the encouragement you give me and for the kind words. I never could have imagined when I started posting here on SMC that I would have met so many people, from so many places, that I consider to be my friends.
