Hello Owen,

I've done very little architectural turning, but have met severa people who do
it for a living. It is about the only type of woodturning that one can actually
make a decent living doing. There are a few people, like Mike Mahoney and
Richard Raffan, that make a living doing mostly bowls. For the most part, the
architectural turners don't seem to join the woodturning clubs, perhaps they
don't have time. From what I understand, the best way to get into it is to align
yourself with a number of architects and get them to recommend you.

Does anyone here specialize in architectural turning? I am curious
about it as a business. Feels like it should be a steadier, more
profitable way to earn a living than most of what turners do. If anyone
could provide some insights into the market and earning potential, I'd
much appreciate anything you are willing to say about it.

Thanks.

Owen Davies
