T'Arts has a new member, Woodworker James Stevens, (pic, above) 

James says : "I was trained as a Technology Teacher in the late 70's and taught in South Australia for the majority of my career. As a Technology teacher I worked in wood and developed a love of its working characteristics as well as its variations in texture, colour and patterns. I spent a lot of my spare time as a young teacher perfecting my skills and found I loved wood turning but couldn’t work with difficult grained wood as successfully as I liked.  As I progressed with my teaching career I was exposed to CAD packages and CNC machining and saw that there were possibilities of working difficult/impossible pieces of timber using these technologies. Since retiring from teaching I now spend a few weeks every year collecting difficult, highly figured burl timbers and desert timbers from Western Australia and Tasmania and developing them into unusually shaped wooden objects using Cad and CNC techniques, with a whimsical touch every so often.
