Introducing Myself

Derek Thomson
"I began wood turning when I retired sixteen years ago. It was a complete contrast to my work as a Postmaster and I gain terrific pleasure from producing a beautiful pen from a chunk of wood or from other materials.
I also use my skills to produce clocks and boxes of all shapes and sizes from a variety of woods"
