    Default Colen Clenton link

    Here is an interesting link from Canadianwoodworking.com http://www.skillsone.com.au/Industry.../The-toolmaker
    I don't think it has been posted here before. He comes across as a thoroughly decent bloke. Also check out the video - shiver-me-timbers.

    Thanks for that.
    It is a great little look at one of the best tool makers around. Yes, he does come across as a lovely fellow. I think that is because he is. I have a few of his tools and they are just wonderful to use as well as being things of beauty.

    Just came back from the HNT Gordon workshop in alstonville after meeting Terry, and now I'm settling down to play with my Colen Clenton 4" square I bought. It truly is a piece of art, but I'm up North and don't really have anything I can use it on! Bugger! Nice to see this- Didn't really know where it came from until after i made the purchase

    Thats a great video, very enjoyable to watch.

    I'm envious of him, doing what he thoroughly enjoys.
    What could be better?
