I recently spent the day with the talented and wonderful Ali Asadi of 'Carving and Turning' at his beautiful workshop in Stevenage, UK

In recent years, Ali has built a strong reputation as a traditional pole lathe turner, specialising in handcrafted wooden bowls, plates, cups, mugs, and locking-lidded boxes; all made with care and precision

While visiting Ali, we filmed a detailed tutorial where he demonstrates step by step how to turn a wooden plate on the pole lathe. From a raw piece of wood to a beautifully finished plate, he leaves no stone unturned

I hope you are all keeping well. I recently passed 100k subscribers on my YouTube channel and have just published a video discussing important updates on the future of the channel

I am honoured to have played a small part in spreading the wonders of natural crafts around the world and to have met so many lovely craftspeople & outdoors enthusiasts along the way

After ten years of running my channel and publishing over 280 videos during that time, I need your help

I discuss how in the video on my 'Zed Outdoors' YouTube channel. If you have ever benefited from the videos I have created, it would mean the world to me if you could watch the video and learn how you can help me

Much love

Peace
