Quote from above link

Notice that the Moroccan turner is using his foot to steady the skew chisel! Also he is using his left hand to control the skew while using his right hand to "bow" the lathe. I'm seeking not information about the turner and the items he turns.

Talk about doing it the hard way. How many of those skewer handles do you reckon he knocks out in a day. Give him an electric lathe and he would corner the market.

We do worry about our fingers, don't we... and we also gripe about such little problems. I need to print a copy of this and hang it in my shed.

Yep he pretty cool. I read an article on him he can turn a chess set while you wait all with his feet. He is pretty talented isn't he?

Safety glasses? If I was him I'd be more worried about wearing a safety cup! :U
