I was born and raised in a Moshav called NIR-ZVI .
Few years ago I bought a small wood lathe and self studied the art of woodtirning . Soon I was swept in to the hobby and began to collect felled trees from sideways, and turn every free moment I had.
Soon my lathe became to small for my needs ,as I attempted to turn biger wood blanks, I decided to build big bowl lathe.Tha "Big" lathe is 2.5HP withe a 40mm thick Shaft.
The wood I use comes mostly from felled trees in my near surroundings: Accia,Mullburry, Norfolk Pine, Chainaburry
