Wood Turner's
| Angus Clyne was born and brought up on the West Coast of Scotland. He attended Carlisle College of Art where he studied Fine Art for one year before deciding this course was not suited to him. Angus took up woodturning as a hobby in 1997 and decided to become a professional woodturner in 1998. He is entirely self taught although he has since attended an advanced woodturning course taught by renowned professional woodturner Melvyn Firmager. |
