Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Terry Porter's lifelong interest in wood, and working with wood, was instilled in him from an early age by his father. Terry spent many years as a teacher of English as a Foreign Language. During this period he took up woodturning, which furthered his interest in wood and particularly in the many different species suitable for turning. He became a professional turner and furniture maker and was formerly the editor of GMC's best-selling Woodturning magazine. With this background Terry has brought a lifetime's practical experience to his work.
