We will going to Europe next weekend. We will be touring Germany (southern), northern Italy and France. Am looking for woodturning related galleries in Germany & Italy. Will attend turning course in France sponsored by Craft Supplies (UK) but always looking for opportunities to see other work. Any suggestions?
Hi Paul,
Who's the teacher on the course you're attending?

Creative Woodturning
Hi Paul, The Woodturning Center's magazine had an article about two or three years ago about an ivory museum in southern Germany. The museum had a lot of turned pieces. I can't find the article right now, but a web search turned up Elfenbeinmuseum in Erbach which is in the Odenwald area.
The course instructor is Jamie Wallwin . Should be fun, classes are 1/2 day with remainder left to touring or ??
Paul, below is the URL link to the German Woodturners organisation, may I suggest that you use the "Kontakt" email address on the right hand side, perhaps the person receiving could be of help. I know he can understand English because I wrote to him last year.
Hi Paul,
You're in for a treat, as well as being an excellent tutor, Jamie is a really funny man, very dry. He is also quite innovative too, I currently have one of his sharpening jigs in on long term review.
Hope you enjoy your time with Craft Supplies.
Regards....Mike Swain RPT
